The chrome rings you could purchase on eBay. I don't know where else you can add chrome accents without looking tacky though.

They are MBA *****. They were "brushed" and I spent about 10hrs polishing them. They made them polished but I have never seen any for sale so I did it myself.

Its not hard at all. You just take the vents out and sand down a tiny part around the edge so the ring with sit flat...then attach them with epoxy. I have pics of the install I will post later.

This is what I have, but everybody that sees them online doesn't like them, and everyone that sees it in person loves it.



The console piece is the only one that doesn't sit flush.

I dont think Boyd still has a car to try them out on (and Firebirds arent a dime a dozen in Spain.) But he sent me a pair to try out and they look GREAT. I havnt had time to put them on because I have been....doing other things lately! But here are some pics to give you an idea of what they look like:
