Scotland Mini Gp Has Now Been Colour Coded!
I have just received my GP back from the garage and im very pleased with the work.
I had my front bumper,wheel arches, back bumper and the boot handle colour coded. The work was carried out by C.S Autos in Edinburgh and they charge between £800-£1000. I had a discount as i knew the owner. There work is very impressive, no dimples and looks the way i believe Mini should have made the GP - standing out from the crowd!

For more pics just ask!

Nice!

Bodykit looks a lot less fussy and much more integrated. The whole car looks smoother and just the way BMW/Mini should have done it!

The arches were rubbed down and two pack coated to remove all the dimples. I have seen a few colour coded minis who have not had this done and the finish isn't half as good. The arches are very smooth to touch and resemble metal instead of plastic.
