Hmmmm anyone read the topical music thread will know about pauls ability to talk and think, well ................... laterally!!!

But i'm looking forward to the option of colour coded / gloss black arches, mine are becoming more and more difficult to maintain. Good job i'm not looking at changing anytime soon so this option appears before i spec my next car!!

Mer do a great exterior plastic cleanign gel, should help you get them looking like new Chris

mad brummie · Oct 9th, 2003, 12:54 PM

i've got some stuff to do them with you just need to keep ontop of it

Mini Cruiser · Oct 10th, 2003, 09:39 PM

the JCW 18s r pretty manky to be fair

LiddleD · Oct 12th, 2003, 01:27 AM

i'd definitely go for the colour arches.

HObzy · Oct 20th, 2003, 12:02 AM

Me too, anyone know who is doing them in the uk at the mo?
They would make a nice line with the colour coded aero sills.

Oh, and front arches make a good boomerang when some idiot knocks one off btw!

ChilliSteve · Oct 20th, 2003, 05:34 PM

any idea on a time frame as to when this option will become available? I'm looking at placing my order in January

dinlo · Oct 23rd, 2003, 10:38 PM

Colored arches gives the MINI a clean sharp look!!!!

LMB · Oct 23rd, 2003, 11:15 PM

I'd get them - I hate the plastic - it's cheap and nasty.

pkrehbiel · Oct 24th, 2003, 05:29 AM

I went for 'em!

There already are, about 3 I think using the same as the 5 and 7 series system. There is even a Hydrogen filling station at Munich Airport. Performance is supposed to be very similar to that of the conventional pertrol engines, but filling up is a bit of a chore.

Paul · Oct 25th, 2003, 11:14 AM

Sure looks tricky to me!

as far as the white arches..i think if u have a pw/b then black glossy arches would be a better contrast

just my opinion

I'm definately considering this....possibly a wide arch kit painted gloss black
(w/ wide rims to match of course)
