Great looking car, very similar to mine! The lowering really finishes the look, sensational. I like the little spotlight covers you've got too.

medilloni, check out some pics of mine here. http://www.mini2.com/forum/australia...re-photos.html

Thanks for the reply Msh, and you too Michael, both cars look awesome - my present car is LB/W and cheerful though the colour is, the DS/W looks sooooo classy. Choosing is half the fun

I think the Vipers will go well with the interior msh, but wonder how they will look offset across the sunroof - are you going to have go at photoshopping it 1st?

I've ordered the bodykit and I'm leaning towards the bonnet stripes Michael has for a very old fashioned reason - I used to watch John Cooper (the man!) racing, and I'll never forget those Mini's going into bends completely sideways - the bonnet stripes were on those.

I could be tempted with a wacky roof graphic too, thoughts of 'Alien', or maybe Leonardo Davinci's/Michelangelo's work looks tempting too; 'Renaissance Man', 'Creation of Adam' etc.

Or maybe I had one too many beers last night

Thanks again guys.

I'm sure I will play with it before anything gets done.

My pocket book is going to feel a little light for the next couple months. The web spokes were supposed to come with the car... but didn't. I got them for the additional $500 I would have paid with the Sport Pack, but I had to pay for them out of pocket (vs. rolling into the financing). That, combined with about $300 in parts and accessories (and another $150 towards my saltwater reef tank) has got me feeling a little tight this week .

WOAH A MINI with a reef tank! Now THAT'S cool

I think the web spokes are miles better than your previous (crown spokes?) wheels btw, really do the car justice.

I know what you mean about watching what you spend on the MINI. I was thinking of feeding the kids this week, just for a change.
