Monsta! I was looking to post a picture of that Mini the other day in this thread, but couldn't find one. I should have known that you.......

As for designing it, David Bowie's input must have been thus: "Chrome it all!"

Have faith, as long as it's done tastefully (i.e not too bright) it should look ok. Would be better on wheels with a deeper dish but it's hard to picture in my head (probably because it's empty)...

Besides, he'll have to clean them now

I wonder if the upholstery's been chromed as well.

Maybe chrome tires would be the next step.
