Colour Coding Astro Black R56

Just wondered if anyone had any images of their own, or even another R56 S in Astro Black that had been colour coded, ideally with the standard bumpers etc, rather than the aero kit.

The reason i ask is that my MINI will be going into the bodyshop to have the door and wing painted after the MINI got hit in a car park while i was away from it (no details left ) and they don't want much more to colour code.

Of course, i want to see what it looks like before i say yes!

Any help appreciated!

I've often considered the same thing but I've not done it yet. I'd be interested in pictures too- there's so little chrome left after the aero grille went on that it looks a bit odd.
I think it will look pretty mean.

You mean the arches right? If you can get it done on the cheap it will look awesome. Been looking into it on mine, and haven't seen any Astro black cars with it done though, I'm sure people have though.

It's a Mini Adventure.

I have a R56 Astro black with the colour coded arches, but mine has the JCW aero kit on it.

Let me know if you want pics.

When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.
