Overall, a stunning look. Think I prefer the look of the standard slatted grill to the mesh, though

Thanks for the pic, DBP

Me too but I'm worried about two things....
Cost and cleaning them

The wheels (17") are official "accessories" and cost about £1,200 for a set of 4 from your BMW/MINI dealer (without rubber). I agree they look superb but they are very vulnerable and not "repair friendly" - being polished/laquered, rather than painted/laquered. In fact, they look fantastic, so s*d the impracticality!

Tyres (Pirelli "Euforia" runflats - at least that's what I've seen fitted to UK 17" wheels) cost £135 each from Micheldever - probably more 'most everywhere else.

Wish I had this kit on mine!!
