Any good bodyshop can do a custom paint job, then for accessories you should approach your dealer or one of the sponsors. Some specialist MINI places will take care of the whole job for you - just tell them what you want, give them the car and they'll get it all done for you... doesn't come cheap though.

What did you have in mind?

You can always get a full body vinyl wrap. Then you can get anything you want put on it, and you can take it off again if you want to sell it standard. Cheaper than a respray too.

Oh, and your previous thread is http://www.mini2.com/forum/exterior/...g-my-mini.html

thank you soz me = forum noob ahha

so a full vinnyl wrap? do those come off? (soz i suck at this)... a little explanation would be helpful

[stripey]

yes it would come off. Don't actually have an exact idea on price, but do a search on google and ring a couple of places. Just found this one which has an example of doing a crocodile skin pattern!

This website http://www.totally-dynamic.co.uk/go/faq.html says that an average car would cost about £1500, so not that cheap I guess! The mini is smaller than an average car though, so I guess would cost less. That is probably for photo quality images all over though rather than plain colour. Also says it comes off easily.

here is a car they cnaged from blue to yellow with a wrap. before:


after:


How about the rolls royce phantom from the last gumball rally? That was a wrap:
