Hi all
Due to take delivery of my Fiat 500 on 20th October (car in the country so on track for this date). As I've had a long wait (change of mobility contract) my accessories list seems to be getting longer.

My 500 will be a 1.2 Dualogic Lounge, in Pasodoble Red. Cordura seats, with Ivory ambience. Chrome mirrors and side rubbing strip with logo are factory-fit extras.

Accessories under consideration (first three are definates) are:-

1. Italian Flag Badges - dealer said when I ordered the car he will fit FOC for me if I buy them as it was cheaper than ordering with the car.
2. Ivory/Black Fiat 500 car mats
3. Fiat 500 tax disc holder
4. Rear Chrome number plate surround (not seen one yet though)
5. Fiat 500 USB Pendrive
6. Key cover (unsure which!)

I had been thinking of the whiteboard for the dashboard but I presume this will be stuck on (I don't want anything that might be difficult to remove when the car is replaced in 3 years).

Anyone have any suggestions? I'm not sure if the rear number plate surround will be worth it, same with the key cover - though I'll no doubt end up with one of the key covers.
 
1. They look nice
2. Mats are cheaper on ebay
3. Never understood paying more than 0p for a tax disc holder
4. Up to you, personally I think the 500 has enough chrome :)
5. 500 pendrive is small, you'll want a bigger one/
6. Contact Chris@souls on the forum, he might be able to do them cheaply :)
 
Not sexy but bootliner is very useful, will catch any spills and will keep your boot carpet safe. It can easily be removed & washed down...

Also this keyring looks pretty cool (mine matches my car's side stripes) - it is Fiat OEM

Many thanks Maxi / Neet !
My dealer is already going to give me a discount on everything I order - they have been great all through the ordering process (as they were with the GP I'm handing back).

Might not go with the rear numberplate surround and get Neet's suggestion of a boot liner instead. I already have one of the Fiat key-rings - I think that is an absolute bargain at under a fiver and a must-have!
 
Here's the flag badges on rosso pasadoble

They're nicely made and discreet; recommended.:)
