Hmm... not my cup of tea.

JBOO · Jun 9th, 2003, 02:02 PM

I don't care for it myself either, although it did look a little better in person.

Surprisingly, Audi will be putting a front end on their car that is very similar. What are the Germans thinking?

bkwalker · Jun 9th, 2003, 02:48 PM

i think the front of it looks so mean!!!
i actaully kind of like the front, but if the front was a less 'out there' it would be better

as for the back, i dont really like it.. whats with those two humps on either side...

if i were u i would stick to the aerokit made by bmw... looks nicer! and more elegant

the Schnitzer body kit is not available from MINI yet.

Root Ginger · Jun 9th, 2003, 05:37 PM

Although this kit is probably expensive it looks cheap. Doesn't really fit in with the lines of the MINI like a lot of other kits I've seen. A decent bodykit should look as though the car was always meant to be that way.

Not for me!

EEEERRRRR No!

Tonyt3 · Jun 9th, 2003, 07:31 PM

I think the expression used to describe something as really great that best sums up is usually 'The Dogs Bollox'. However, in regard to the schnitzer bodykit, I think this should be changed slightly to 'The Dogs a55hole'....

erichui · Jun 10th, 2003, 12:21 AM

too much grill for me too

but to be honest, i like the back more than the front

Mugami · Jun 10th, 2003, 03:53 AM

looks like there even tring to go more retro to me.. but not my cup of tea either. Will say theres proberly a market for it

Fullupo · Jun 10th, 2003, 05:17 AM

Awful! Absolutly disgraces the mini. Its like takin a perfictly good mini and crashing it into a dumptruck full of sewage....and then a passing eagle takes a ***** on it for good measure! I like the look of that Z4 in silver tho, i want one! gimme gimme!

Dark Silver S · Jun 10th, 2003, 05:24 AM

Hey, Fullupo, don't be shy. Tell us what you really think.

I don't get it. We've got folks on here who look for carbon-fibre bonnets, carbon-fibre S scoops, wings, extra lights, painted skirts, and yet no one likes the Schnitzer. You're as bad as the classic drivers.

I think it looks rather nice.

I think the problem is it looks like the guy who designed the kit (I won't actually call him a designer) hadn't actualy seen the car, just had it described to him, before he drew up the plans. It just does not fit the car properly.

I don't like the wide body 'zeemax' kits, but at least they fit properly.

Fullupo · Jun 10th, 2003, 05:51 PM

Sorry, was havig a bad day yesterday and couldnt be bothered to beat around the bush. Ill try again.......Hmmm, im not a fan of it myself, Its got potential but just doesnt quite look right to me. But people have different tastes and thats what makes the world as wonderful and exiting as it is. Better?
