I initially wanted to get these flowers in pink, but opted to go with the black and I'm glad I did (not to mention that my husband said he probably wouldn't have driven the her if she had PINK flowers! ). I really like the way it came out....It's definitely a "chick" MINI now, aye???

 

Clever way to get your hubby to stop taking the MINI.
Nicely done.

 

Thats cute!! I like it a lot!

 

Very girlish, even in black.

Now, get rid of the orange side repeater lens and like I said in the other thread... paint those brake calipers !!

 

It's definitely a nice touch for a chick car. Now you need to change your signature picture.

Give a chick a brake...er...a break!!! (and tell me what an orange side repeater lens and a brake caliper are...)

 

That little egg-shaped orange lens on each side... that's your side repeater lens. You can get a very inexpensive replacement lens that is clear/white, it comes with an orange bulb to keep you legal. That orange looks out of place, IMO.

The brake caliper is the part of the brake assy that holds the pads which squeeze the rotors. Yours would look hot painted RED. They would really stand out in your design scheme and add a sporty touch to your girly MINI.

 

Here you go... painted calipers. And notice the white side repeater lens in the second pic.

 

Yeah, but wouldn't my break caliper look more "hot" and girly if I painted it PINK???

 

Where would one buy said side repeater lens??? And does one paint ones own brake caliper???

 

Girly ? For sure.

Hot ? ummmmmmmmmmmmm... if you say so.

 

its sure is nice..

And yes, very easy to paint your calipers. The most work is in removing the wheels. After that, piece of cake !

You just need a caliper paint kit:

Well, thank you so much for all of this info! I really do appreciate it and will do as you say, Oh Mighty Mini One!!!!! I'm heading to those websites now!!!

 

Cool... your MINI will look great with those two simple mods !

 

She's PRETTY! I like it a lot, and gee.. I think I need to do something so MY hubby won't want to drive my girl!

 

and what did you call me ??

 

But you have to buy two kits (red and white) to make pink.

 

OOOPS! Sorry!

 

Like it a lot! (and a shout out to your color choice )

 

 

really cute idea! def a great way to keep the hubby from driving it..as soon as im done paying off charlie, my boyfriend is "taking" it to change it to all black w/ chrome (making it a boy's car) my next mini is going to be a pepper white with pink stripes..dont think hed be driving it then..hehe

 

NIcely done. Your MINI is definitely a standout.

It looks great. Like it just arrived in Hawaii! It's a decal, right?

 

Yep, it's a decal (and a very good one!) It was actually sent from Kauai! I searched for some kind of flower stripe, but this was the only pattern that I liked, not that I have a particular fondness for or heritage from Hawaii...just thought the flowers were pretty!
