Very Nice! Really like the way the LED tail lights blend in with the colour of the car...without looking to aftermarket!

Any more plans down the line?

aero kit, and then either go for a red or chrome scheme. soo full black with red GT stripe and side stripes with black rims with red edge. or silver/chrome vipers or GT stripe.

any ideas are welcome

Cool, sounds good!

Ive got a photo of a Mini somewhere at home, with this sort of colour scheme. Well at least at the wheels anyway.

I'll try to get it posted up tomorrow

Hi..

Nice one indeed - I have absolutely no idea why Mini decided to discontinue solid black!!

It is by far the best of any colour in terms of how it fits with the design of the car.
As much as I really like my BRG/Blk I'd swap it for solid black in a heartbeat (with all the same options of course).

Every "sports" car worth anything comes in solid black - Just not the Mini! Why?

Cheers, Geoff.

I hate the fact you posted such nice pictures of your Black II MCS, makes me regret selling mine now Still Ive gone red which I must say is starting to look good, and the best thing is that it takes bugger all effort washing wise as even when dirty it looks good where as black takes some work to keep clean

well since i last posted alot has happened!!!

first of all had a new clutch gearbox oil steering pump and fluid coolant and wheel barings thank god its under warrenty. kinda bought a runt it seems

and that my local dealer said my bullets where poorly refurbished, but luckerly i still had my crown spokes from my R56 and i have put them on and tbh i prefer the crown spokes on it, and on the move it just looks like 1 big silver disc

but after all this its perfect!!!

as i sed since then i have put my crown spokes




then myself and matty went to see the pirate to get the cars all vinyled up
