White Cooper How do I go about this little mod? Tips please!

Hello MINI2ers...

Your help, advice and ideas are needed here.

My PW/B MCS is in need of a little mod. I have just added a chrome boot handle at the back which I think looks superb, but very subtle - breaks the white up nicely too.

Now - I want to do a little mod, but cannot find anything on these forums. With the S badges on the rear, and indicator grills, I want to change them from red, to black (to coordinate with the rest of the car)

Anyone got any advice on how to do this - sticker, paint, MINI Pirate??


Thank you in advance


jay

PS - looking forward to seeing some of you on the Top Gear run

I did this with mine but to white, then changed them to reflective white.

Most of my mates went with black to match their roof colours.

Its a nice subtle mod

Thought of going back to Reflective Red to tie things in with the brakes and roll bars (and hopefully suspension if it ends up being red)
