I have an Indi Blue cooper s with a white roof, mirrors, stripes and wheels at the moment. I was thinking of changing the wheel colour to black while having them refurbed but not sure if this would clash with the white?

I have seen photo's of mini's with white roofs and mirror caps and black wheels and quite like it. Something different!

Just wondering what everyone else thinks?

I like the black wheels, You could add some black decals(chequered) to the roof and mirrors...but they look good anyway...

Put a black pinstripe on your bonnet stripes, then do the wheels black... I like the contrast with the white, especially with the Aero kit (and thus black grille, limited chrome). :)

Thanks for your opinions!

I have the black pin stripe on the white stripes. Was thinking of changing them to black.. Also thought about carbon headlight surrounds and bonnet scoop! Might try some photo editing and see how it looks!

Your Indi Blue looks identical to my first mini! Good choice!
I wouldn't go for black wheels without doing something to the mirror caps and bonnet strips personally.

Thanks! It does look good after a nice polish! Its a tough choice!

I can always respray them back or change the roof to black in the long run!

I like the black alot, initillay thought I would`nt but the pics changed that.

May have to go black on mine now as I have the same colour car but my roof is black with the panoramic roof..

All the photo's have changed my mind to.. Didn't think it would suit at first but i'm warming to it.. Just cant decide if the mirrors or roof on mine will need to go black.. I bet the pan roof looks good with black and im sure the black wheels would set it off nicely!

bonnet stripes would have to go sorry, If you go for carbon headlights and scoop then you could have a carbon roof done in vinyl and the mirrors aswell, a car vinyl firm by me has put it on is bmw m3 roof and it looks really good. Not sure how easy it is to remove though if you wanted to change it....

It would be black stripes or no stripes at all.. The carbon bits are expensive!

I had thought about the vinyl, they call it wrapping don't they? Saw a white rs focus with a carbon roof. Can't be to pricey either can it! :)

Yes fella, think the dark wheels will go nicely with black/pan roof.

Could try black checks on roof. You have black on the front with the aero grilles which may help balance it out a bit.
