Thank again Jay!

Is it just me or do the rims still look a bit too big?? (did you get to mach over my original rims (size-wise)?)

If thats the true size... I might be tempted to go for 16" wheels instead..

Your colour coded sills, wheel aches etc look absolutely bob on. That's the best upgrade i've seen yet. Mmm red wheel arches, sills....nice.

ADO15 · May 23rd, 2002, 03:13 PM

Thanks mate!

I must be honest and say that they've also "grown on" me with time aswell... Nowadays, when I see a Mini with black arches - I actually think it looks kinda weird...

If I might ask. How much to do the painting?

ADO15 · Jul 1st, 2002, 08:32 PM

I dont know what others might charge for it, but it cost me around $15

I did the dismantling myself had the guy next door spray it as part of a "trade job" and put it back together again myself.

The fiftheen bucks? - you say.. Well those are for the 18 plastic clips that hold the sills... They are not re-useable and will break when you remove the sills.

This should be standard issue or a NCO, BMW!

Thanks for sharing pics ADO15. Your paint buddy did a great job

Couldn't agree more! It absolutely SHOULD be a NCO!
Looks fantastic ADO15!! Can't wait to see it on MY Indi Blue Cooper!

Thanks for sharing the pics! ENJOY!

Your car inspired me to go for it too. Painting the sills and arches seems to make more sense than getting the body kit, especially on the S. Everyone who sees it agrees that MINI should make it standard on all cars. Here is my yellhttp://www.mini2.com/gallery/personal/majerlenbean/image01.jpgow S
