Defo a good idea, I think Body Colour and or Black would be good options, defo not white!

AidenL · Oct 7th, 2003, 12:47 PM

I'd like them too.............

mhoutman · Oct 8th, 2003, 11:36 AM

IMHO the car seems more "balanced" with all unpainted arches, front- and back spoiler. Either paint everything or nothing

Rakey · Oct 8th, 2003, 02:13 PM

It the natural progression, glad it is sooner rather than later, just ford (sorry for swearing in here) did on the Ka and those dreadful bumpers.

Yeah but the Ford Ka looks pants anyway. (Flame proof suit on)
The MINI looks ace with and without Body Coloured bumpers. I think the plastic should be painted black for the light colours e.g. Red, Yellow, White etc

Hmmm??? Confession time again, hate posting when drunk, had 2 Ka's, not a bad motor for handling and when it was launched it was different and stood out, but no mini by miles

Did me well, very reliable.

But glad I am back to a mini

Rakey · Oct 8th, 2003, 04:52 PM

Yeah, working in China for a few weeks, only about one and half to two weeks left, thank god. I realise I really love my MCS and Mini2 is a great place to keep sane

i agree, thus i want the shiny/glossy black to match my roof

Martin L · Oct 8th, 2003, 04:56 PM

I think it's a great idea

It'll make it easier for people to personalise their cars even more

All they need to do now is make wheel choice more flexible with the chilli pack

I'm sure someone mentioned on here about new wheel's becoming available in Spring 04. Lets hope theyre factory fit options. Someone also mentioned a 5 spoke 17" wheel

Anthing like the 16" 5 spoke and 18" JCW's should be ace.

red03miniS · Oct 9th, 2003, 12:36 AM

damo...is that confirmed news????

I'm preety sure I read a post from the Big Man himself (Mr Mullet

) saying MINI were looking at new wheels. Can't rememeber where. As for the 17" 5 spokers not so sure! Why you looking at changing your wheels AGAIN! you had 16's then the 17 S Spokes and now the hamann's!! Whats goin on!!

Have to say the JCW's 18" are the best looking wheels by far. But £2500 is a lot of money and 18" is a think is a bit to big, but when they look this good:

NEMINI · Oct 9th, 2003, 01:15 AM

Paul did hint at new wheel options coming but I think protecting sources proclude him from revealing too much at this time.

red03miniS · Oct 9th, 2003, 01:27 AM

damo..looks like you follow my wheel progession quite well!! LMAO
i also had volk racing gram light pro 57 on my mini for a while.

most of my cars have 3-4 sets of rims. no i am not looking for new rims, and i think the jcw looks....(i will keep my mouth shut

)

i meant the wheel arches news..was that confirmed?

NEMINI · Oct 9th, 2003, 01:28 AM

If Paul hints at something ... well lets say I'd bet on it

red03miniS · Oct 9th, 2003, 03:42 AM

i dont hang out much at mini2...but now i know..paul's word is golden
