England Body Kits for 2003 Mini one

Hi there every one i hope some one can help me!

I have recently taken my mini off the road for the winter and we will be doing some work on it. My husband has taken all the wheel arches off and all the black plastic bumper trim and he will painting them to match the rest of the body work. Im sure it will look great once its back on the car but i have been looking at bodykits for the mini and i have seen some realy nice kits and suggested that we get a body kit instead of spraying the plastic trim. But the prices are unbelievable i have serched the web but its all so expensive, i have even seen range rover and audi body kits witch are a far less than the mini bodykit. Can any one help me out at all?

Thank you all
Jessica.

Good luck finding a cheap body kit ...

Color coding the wheel arches and bumper trim will be the cheapest route.

I have just spoken to a few spray garages in my area and they refuse to colour code the trim, as they do not want to be responsible for the paint cracking/pealing ect.. as the trim is very flexable, and they said somthing about not being able to get a special primer or something??? I dont know..i dont know much about that kind of thing but thats what they said any way...i think i will have to wait untill after christmas and i will buy the real thing. Thank you both for your comments its much appreciated.
