The car looks lower because of the colorcoded arches, and I suspect new springs!

It's a Mini Adventure.

Not what I meant ! As you can see it had color coded and probably lowered springs beforehand!

What I am saying is the area from the waistline to the skirt, looks like it has less depth because of the graphic challenge stripes! Which in turn give it an even lowered look The black roof helps this too!

Been thinking of doing either the challenge stripe or wavy check plus number 56 which represents the letters from Charlie as they number in the alphabet, just coincidental about the R56 tag!

If I have your style graphics would probably go for the side or full skirts too. Don't want to look too mean

I would never have mine lowered due to the color coding.
Travelling to North Yorkshire on a regular basis you never know when you get a dip in the road hit the front and BOOM it needs re-spraying on the front Valance.

All the graffix and coding done has been carefully thought out to give the lowered appearance without even touching the suspension.

Hope this helps

I have enjoyed watching your decal mods and I think you really have worked it out well

When I first saw your arch colour coding I thought uh -oh makes the body look oversized.
But now with the rest of your graphics it evens out really well Although I quite liked your previous wheels Your new wheels are they R90 cross anthracite?

The new wheels are 105's Black Burnished, look fantastic at night as the wheel shines on the outer rim under street lights to create a constant light ring , another optical illusion!

The other wheels are Dare X4's even though they are the same size as the 105's they look bigger and fuller.
These wheels are very rare and not sold anywhere anymore

I think that car looks FAB! Makes me think it's almost worth getting the Clubman (with the longest roof that BMW make, apparently) just so you can make such a bold statement like that

Not here much any more

Well it seems like we have an R56 challenge graphic theme here. Mine are matt black on Astro black and the viper as well. I cant seem to post the pictures of the front viper, i will resize them and try again.

I have also posted pictures of the chrome theme it had for a while.

It has had a few outfits for different mini runs that i have done including skulls and crossbones for a treasure hunt and bright pink writing for a rockstar theme.

I love the stealth look now though.
