Go for it!
I'm going with a whole blue/grey/black them now. I spent today blacking out the headlight trim, did the gas cap the other day. I'm hoping to get to the taillight trim tomorrow.

I keep going back to the garage to see if she's okay

Good Choice! I wasn't sure between the silver and black but I went with the black and since my roof and interior are black it all goes nicely!

Thanks for all your kind words. At one time while I was waiting for her to be delivered, I was having second thoughts about the color choice. HzB won over Spice Orange and Eclipse Gray.

Now that she's here, the more I look at her, the more I like her. Definitely have no regrets.

Love the picture on the Dragon, Annette!

In that first picture it almost looks like your MCS is bigger than your husband's CM though!

It's amazing going through this entire thread, and I haven't found one HzB MINI that's the same. As far as I read, no one has my set up either. Im expecting to pick her up early next week (Currently docked in NYC). Here's what I got

2011 MINI Cooper Hardtop
HzB/Blk/Bonnet Stripes
Xenons w/ Black housing/White turn signals
Sports Package
Cold Weather Package
16" Star Spoke
Chrome Driving Lamps (still haven't quite decided on these yet)

I can't wait to bring her home and do a photo shoot.

Does anyone know the Pantone (PMS) color code for our favourite color?

I have a Pantone color swatch chart that my printer let me borrow to choose some colors for a banner. I'll see if I can find the closest match to HzB.

Here are the first two shots taken on her, one was from my MA fresh off the truck, and the other was me from my phone just before I pulled away with her. Hopefully I can take her out for real photos soon.
