Wait to have it, and then you'll see if you want to add accessories. I've made some tailor-made stuff pretty nice for our M3W (you can have a look at them in my boring blog if you want to www.speedymarmots.com) I would immediately add: - RAM ball mount for supporting the smartphone /and/or GPS.  - Under Bonnet storage structure is very useful  - If your life's at risk because your wife can't drive it  , the back cushion is mandatory (check mine, it's really wise - sorry I don't mean to be cool, but really it's wise  ) The rest such as the boot and bonnet locks depends on the balance between been valiant enough to drill your beauty and scared enough about the stealing-babbons. The luggage set if you're super posh but not Kardashian style, etc.

Thanks, forgot about the RAM. As you say Javier accessories can always be added after, which I know from my last one is all part of the enjoyment. Just need to dig out those plans for the sliding cockpit and

Metal Union flag badge. Dont go overboard on the stickers, less is more, I just have MOG & my dealer made "No Step" on the side above silencer. They can be added later. I did not have the side pockets. I made a simple shelf on the passenger side from wood attached to the underside of of the flat panel to left of fuse box. Problem is Tim, I like stickers. Already ordered 2 saucy ladies and a mouse. I honestly have never seen a bad 3 wheeler even the polished pink version made me smile.

Never knew a gloss black chassis was an option, that sounds cool! Maybe go with the gloss black/powder coated suspension too, so it does not rust in 25 minutes?

It isn't an option but I'm asking for it. Hopefully stops the rust but I think if does rust then be easier for me to touch up. Plus I think the inner rails inside would look better. Don't ask you....

I'd suggest getting them to do a Dinitrol job on the insides of the chassis tubes before they assemble anything. Has to be more rust resistant than the brown paint they put on the internals.

+1 for the ACF50, I bath mine in it every winter and have no chassis rust.
BTW I would go for a gloss grey chassis if I had the option same as the old Lotus single seaters.
