I really like this MINI

This might have already been posted but I really dig the scuttles and the fender flares. I also really like the rear diffuser.

That is some serious carbon fiber weave inside! I love it, but couldn't live with it. It'd make my eyes bug out all the time...

That is by far... the most GORGEOUS MINI I have ever seen. I love the exterior graphics, the rear bumper, and the leather seats!

A bit garish on the inside (the checkered weave all over the place) would have looked nicer with some piano black or or brushed alloy...

Still... imho the nicest MINI I have seen to date.

The exterior is excellent. What an amazing job! I agree that the carbon fiber interior is a bit much. Only thing that car is missing is a third pedal!

That is thing about this MINI this is all of the options these guys offer on one car. You can get bits and pieces if you want.

The front bumper/spoiler as well as the rear diffuser are the best parts

The front is freakin awesome looking. The back would be nicer if it didn't have all those graphics. Love the bumpers

I still think my favorite part is the fender flares and side skirts.

Are you sure your fav part isn't that rear diffuser?!? Come on... its gorgeous! hahaha

The fender flares are nice. They aren't too overstated. I saw a MINI with huge fender flares once and it made it the car look like it had some junk in the trunk if you know what I mean. Ba-dunk-a-dunk. It was out of control.

I don't think I could handle the naked lady on the boot... I think the parent council and the principal at my schould would object to me driving to work with naked ladies and the word BULLY on my car... (BUT secretly I love it).

that rear spoiler and front bumper are very doable, side scuttles are nice too... graphics are original, but the interior is nice if you're on drugs.

I do like the overall design--very tasty. The weapon motiv is a little overplayed: everybody is trying to squeeze a little originality into the tough, rebel idea in custom car design. I'd like to see it go in another direction (That's why I have a big sign on my car: "Hey folks, I'm a big wimp!" JK, I'm not man enough ).
