We BRG owners are a conservative group. Has anyone done anything really wild with BRG as a base?
I think of all the color combinations and wild ways MINIs were tricked out at the Dragon, and then realize none of em were BRG.
Don't get me wrong, I love my BRG, but it seems there is very little to be done with it, interior or exterior, if you have a wild streak. I suppose my roof could be considered a bit 'out there,' but note that even there the guy is conservatively dressed and the color palate is quite muted.
Has anyone seen anything truly wild done from a BRG base? By that, I mean wild things that work.

Another British Racing Green Owner
As a soon to be 2nd owner (late June, early July) I thought I would throw this in for the heck of it. My first ever car was a 1955 Chevy sedan that had been repainted a dark metalic green. Not really BRG but close. I have always had a fondness for that color since owning that car.
I gave very serious thought to pepper white as 5 of the last 12 cars that I have owned were white. It was at the time only for Cooper's so I bought a BRG/W MCS in '03. The choice of color was not that hard to make once I saw that white was not available.
Again I had to think long and hard about ordering a pepper white one after selling my '03 but thankfully common sense, good judgement and old fashioned stubborness pervailed, why change a good thing, and I ordered another BRG/W MCS.
Now I just have to wait for the car to be delivered.
