S8 (really A8) gold package, OPINIONS?

	Gold wheels are the supreme ultimate, man!  I have to have gold on
everything.  Gold steering wheel, gold gearshifter, gold fuel cap door,
gold door handles, gold wiper blade arm (just one -- its a statement).  I
want a gold grille.   The car has been repainted what I believe be an
unusual bright purple.  Photos:  $3.00 each.   (To help pay for the paint
job)  No one would ever know it had a salvage title!  I thought about
plating the driver's door, as a statement about my individualmyality.  But
would that be too much?
	Anybody got a gold S8 grille?  Wonder if a junkyard might have it.  I
don't want to have to pay another $6,800 to get it plated like my 20" Avus
rims.  That was a bit pricey for plating wheels, even for me.  One problem:
 the tires shake pretty bad because I pulled the wheelweights off.  Lead
just don't go with no gold.  And if it don't go, it don't show.
