I'm offered a set for EUR 69,= excl. transport (that's about 45 pounds for the people on the wrong side of the road and the Channel). Dunno 3 or 5 door yet (must have 5d types)

How is this pricing? :confused:

Mel, I thought you had some of this Blue Steel ? :D

Ivo,

GET THEM! Maybe it's not THAT special, but they give the car an extra classic touch. I know they cost about 275 - 300 guilders (about 140 EURO's or something) at the Alfa dealer. The price is the same for 3 and 5 doors. And maybe not needed to say, but get the 5 drs (you've got 5 drs, don't you?), because they are NOT compatible with 3 drs.....obviously! :confused:

As we're speaking about this, they get scratched very easily. Is there a way to polish up the chrome and sort of "fill up" the scratches?

And they are very easy to fit. I refitted them, because the dealer did a not so nice job fitting them wink

Ivo,

The ones from carros are different and are fitted on another spot than the original ones. You can have a look at mine at the meeting and find out which you like most. Personally I like the original ones far better than the ones from Carros.

Mel,

Are the AR ones covering part of the rubber strip then? Because I now have black "Alfa Romeo" written logos there, so perhaps you have the chrome there? :confused:

I already want them installed during the meeting > impress you guys :D

I know the ones from carros, because a couple of months ago I did an inquiry on prices on floormats, chrome exhaust tail pipe and the chrome doorsteps as an addition to the ones I have now (I know, sometimes I can carry away a little bit). Wait a minute I think I have the prices somewhere here.........

Ivo,

Yes you're right! I sent you an instant message on this. But really you should go to your dealer and ask if he has them to get an impression!

I know they are expensive, but I think it would be a pitty if you bought the Carros ones and then maybe discovering that the original ones look better. We don't want to have a "cognitieve dissonantie" experience, do we? wink
