Hi guys!
I'm new in this mini stuff and i am from portugal!

I am getting a Sparkling Silver with Black Roof.
Caught in the hard job

of speccing new mini cooper d, i would like some help deciding alloys:
bridge spoke or 5 star blaster?
i know 17'' would look better but money isn't enough for all the extras...

mini in portugal is not a very cheap car... if anyone has pics, it would be great!

thanks!

Hi!

Personally i would go for the 5 star blasters as they look sportier. But it depends on your taste.

Try this link (if it works)

thanks for your opinion mel!

and for the link... but it is not very real, is it?

i think i will go for the 5 star, because i selected chili pack and it includes them... but i am afraid that they become very common...
i would really love some photos...

Mini guys, help me!!!

By the way, what do you say about armrest? Is it necessary? Does it look nice?

Do what you need to do maryjane. You can always change wheels later if you want
