Here is my 2004 Mini Cooper painted in Solid Gold

Modifications:
Black Aero Grill
Stubby Antenna
17" Team Dynamics Pro Sport 1.2

I dont feel like she is finished yet and wanted to get some input to see what everyone thinks and suggestions on what I should do next. It's not the best scenery, and she needs a bath, but it gives an idea.

Nice

Just need to get rid of the chrome line below the glass and bingo

Roofas · May 2nd, 2008, 09:43 PM

Deffo a drop, belt line black out, black handles and maybe black headlight rings.

Roofas · May 2nd, 2008, 09:43 PM

And maybe a Joey mod but that may be going a bit too far.

I don't normally like the 24k, but with the tinted windows that is a very sharp MINI.

RyanK · May 2nd, 2008, 10:44 PM

I like that alot, job well done!

The aero grill finishes it off

nylo · May 2nd, 2008, 11:23 PM

Clear (or smoked) side indicators?

Otherwise I don't think you'd need to do too much more to it

othrside · May 3rd, 2008, 04:10 AM

Thanks. I have been thinking about blacking out the rest of the car but the biggest thing stopping me was painting the handles on the door and the boot. I haven't seen any black aftermarket ones so I figured I'd have to paint it.

Electric Blue · May 3rd, 2008, 09:24 AM

looks spot on, it does need lowering a touch though

feybrand · May 4th, 2008, 02:34 PM

thats nice that is and different the missus likes it too

blankito · May 4th, 2008, 02:59 PM

Black out everything!

Joey mod FTW

othrside · May 5th, 2008, 03:25 AM

I appreciate the input. I've decided I'm going to go ahead and blackout the rest of the car. I'll post pics when done.

othrside · Jun 26th, 2008, 11:28 PM

Well it took longer than expected but here is the end result. I lowered with Eibach Springs, blacked out the beltline, added black halo lights and smoked side indicators, and I painted the headlight rings, door handles, and the boot handle.

Darthbladerni · Jun 26th, 2008, 11:38 PM

that is really nice. The black and gold combo looks amazing. Well done with everything so far, I don't think it needs another thing done,

othrside · Jun 26th, 2008, 11:41 PM

Thanks, As a final touch I'm contemplating either facelift or aero bumpers, with cooper s sideskirts.

Awesome job, Cj! I'm glad all that hard work and money paid off! It looks fantastic.

That looks great... As you say Aero kit or Cooper S bumpers and skirts would look superb...

Streeters · Jun 28th, 2008, 01:29 PM

Wow, that looks awesome, such a difference !, top modding
