In another one of our in depth features on the new Cabrio here's some further information about the exterior trim of the upcoming addition to the MINI line-up: (This info comes from the latest MINI PR release)

The MINI Convertible is available with a choice of no less than 10 exterior colours, two of which are exclusive to the Convertible – Hot Orange and Cool Blue with a special paintwork effect. Made of top-quality fabric, the roof is available in three different colours providing particular margin for your personal taste. And while the MINI One Convertible comes only with a Black roof, the roof of the MINI Cooper offers the customer a choice of Black, Blue, and Green.

The rear-view mirror housings come in Black on the “basic” model and are finished in body colour on the MINI Cooper Convertible. This allows a particularly wide range of choice and combinations proving once again that this new version is not a regular production model, but rather a special car built for the special customer with his – or her – own individual taste.

The Chrome Line exterior package featuring chrome plating not only on the bumper inserts, grilles and rear lid handle, but also on the rollbars, ensures an extra touch of genuine British style. A further option is to choose the rear-view mirror housings as well as the rear hinges in chrome as an additional highlight.

Most of this info has been known but details such as the chrome line trim additions haven't been confirmed until now. Also not mentioned in this release is the fact that Parking Distance Control (PDC) is standard on the Cabrio.
