Had a Ford Pickup with chrome mirrors, too, but I wouldn't have called them pretty.

Young, wouldn't that be an S3?

I don't know if that's the designation, but that's the hatch, so I'd assume that it's the S version of the A3.

I actually don't mind them, though I wouldn't get them myself. Unless I had some nasty stone chips in my mirrors, then they'd be the lesser of two evils.

Chrome trim is very delicate. A little is nice, a little too much is tacky. The mirror covers in this case, is too much. IMO.

Personally, I don't like chrome wheels either.

and again, that's just me.
