Tell us more about your MINI. Looks like the one that got away for me; 2013 S no sunroof.
Is it a manual?

Yes 2013 S no sunroof and it's a manual. Just added rear sway bar and front strut bar brace. Working on blacking out the chrome and white paint.

Just blacked out all of my chrome the car has more of a racing look now then a high school girl thinking it's cute. Used some factory parts, aftermarket, wrap and pinstripe. Front grill was a whole kit I needed because mine did not have the black mesh like yours (China on Ebay) $120. I'm guessing you might be able to find your 2 pieces cheaper or just spend the extra for factory. Rear taillight trim rings are factory $49 , cheap enough not to try and wrap. Front headlight trim and rear hatch release above license plate I wrapped with carbon fiber look $8. Ordered door handle covers but have not received yet carbon Fiber look $16, hope they don't look to bad. And the beltline (around bottom of windows I used 5/8 inch matte black pinstriping $20. Mirror covers took some time to find cheap but only $25 felt like a still. A few days here and there as things came in and I'm happy with the look and did not spend to much on a car with 140k and is not worth a whole lot being a base Mini. Enjoy working on your mini, there is something about these little boxes thats just fun to drive.
