Doing up a MINI ONE

[Darthbladerni]

either would be better than standard ones, possibly the split spoke though, they win it for me

Definately! they look really good when comparing to stock ONE side skirts.

Im also going to get a black cooper S top and bottom grill with the chrome surround as it has three horizontal slats instead of 4 and the chrome is one smooth peice with no grooves. Just little things

^-- I like the way that man thinks...

Also, the smoothed de-grooved chrome will be a lot easier to keep clean - I do find bugs really like to get splatted deep into the groves after an exuberant outing around those country lanes.

Hi there, here is my MINI ONE when i got it............


then i added a John Cooper Motorsport Induction Kit, which is fantastic!!! and some s spokes, and note the black side repeaters, subtle!!...............


then fitted a chrome grill and rear boot handle, cooper spoiler, stripes (which are unfortuanately off now but being redone by signymrideuk.com when get the aero kit on), rear lights changed, and a new steering wheel as my old one began peeling, oh and JCW floor mats






then followed more recently a set of GP dials, a pair of genuine spot lights,




and the all important club sticker!!!


as i mentioned i'm gettin the aero kit on soon, so the chrom grill will come off to be replaced with the aero grill, unless i can fit the chrome grill to the aero kit which cud look good, then goin back to signmyrideuk.com to have stripes redone

I do like the aero kit but cant justify the price, im planning on an s next year and i will be looking for a car with one already fitted. But for the time being i am quite happy with s bumpers sitting on coilovers and soon 18s. going to order an aero grill and de chrome the car soon.

If you can get hold of s bumpers then go for it, leaves more money for other mods
