Hello everyone,

I now have a a navy blue JCW R56 Checkmate package. I really want to start modding the exterior/performance of my mini. I want to order the tinted tailight kits tomorrow.

My front grill is chrome, and I want to change it to the black matte one. Where can I find this from, and is it a direct replacement? Also, I want to take my rear windhshield wiper out (I saw a thread on the forum, and it looks a lot cleaner).

Please if you guys can help me, and give me opinions and suggestions on what I should do to the car other than my plans.

Thanks!!!

 

You can buy a black grille and replace yours, but it will either be Astro Black or Jet Black. But you can create a black matte grille by using blackout tape on it. I did this last year and it still looks as good as the first day that I did it.
