Latest mods to my C/R

Just finished doing the chrome pieces around the head lights and tail lights in red vinyl and also did the belt line, cars looking so much better now. Just needing to find time now to do "the joey"

I personally like the chrome! Each to his/her own though.

This gen MINI just doesnt look very good unless it has the JCW Aero kit. THe normal Aero kit is a total swing and miss though.

VERY nice! The more I see the body-colored rings, the more I like them. In fact, as soon as Lyle can get a proper match for Mellow Yellow, I'm getting a kit for my rings and handles. Everything else will get the black out treatment though.

Nicely done!
