    When you get your Prime, do any of you have plans to change/alter the interior or exterior of your car? What will you do?

    For me, the first few things will be trying to get those plastic frisbees off the wheels and adding a center cap. Then ordering up a real spare donut to stow behind the drivers seat for the real long trips through deserts, etc.

    I'll wait to see what the actual interior of my trim looks like, and how much white porcelain is present to squash, but one thing from the videos kinda disturbs me even more than the white stuff. It is that chrome wave treatment on the dash that runs the full width. Who thought that up?

    So is filming the chrome strip an option? Maybe make it look like some sort of dark chrome so it becomes drastically less reflective? The thought of everything outside the car as I pass reflecting off that chrome strip will probably be distracting to the driver or front seat passenger.
