If I had purchased black or dark gray, those would be awesome. It would have been much simpler to add pink.
MINI actually has OEM special edition pink mirror covers available, about $80 each.

I've seen a matte pink Phantom driving around Hollywood that looks pretty cool. One of the places I was checking out did a 911 in matte pink too:

There is a brand new Cadillac at the local Caddy dealer that is wrapped in pink. Personally, I like pink cars if they have a retro feel. The MINI looks great. I have also seen a 2004 Thunderbird that was lovely. Now had I seen this Tbird, I might not be driving a MINI today...

I bought off-the-lot and got a red MINI. It is a great color. But I really want some pink. I am waffling about wrapping it in pink. I dont have the heart for a complete repaint, it pains me to think of what they will need to remove just to wrap it. I took a peek at the orange crush paint job and jut seeing that poor mini disassembled made me realize I absolutely cant do a repaint.
So while looking for pink examples on autos, I came across this Harley on eBay, "pink trash". I thought it was interesting as it started off with a red base coat and they put pink panels accented with gold. A VERY bold statement.
Any advice on how to go pink? Could I manage to add it to the red without looking too gawdy?

It's your car. I would make it pink and make it go faster and surprise people rather than just an attention getter. I feel the car is already unisex enough and I'm trying to get as far away from that aesthetically as fast as possible on my mini.

Here's one heck of a pink Mini I came across while searching for mirror caps.
