Modifications to my cooper

Hi i have owned my mini now for 6 months. Ive been constantly looking at the forum ever since and thought maybe its time i signed up!!

I am now looking to make my mini a little different but still want to keep the classy look it currently has......basically just dont want to make it look tacky!!!

The modifications i am looking at are (below) if anyone could shed some light on these it would be great!!!

- tinting the back windows - dont know how much this would cost?

- replacing the mirror caps to chrome - does anyone know if the stick on ones are any good i dont want them overlapping or falling off.

- k&n panel filter - will this make it sound better? And will the fuel efficency improve or is that just wishful thinking!!

- i am also looking at replacing the very (very) long aerial but due to i have the boost radio will i ruin the sound quality?

- white side repeaters - any ideas where to get these? And how to fit them?

Thanks!!!

I don't have much experience with the car as I just got it a month ago but I can tell you that on my r50, I was able to fit a spectre air filter on the stock tubing for the air box. I tcost me twenty dollars and added a nice sound to the car as well as some hp.
