Which spoiler would look better?

Okay, humor me now... if you had a choice between these two spoilers, which would put on your MCS.... (assuming they both fit correctly)

Whatcha ya'll think?

I'm about to start messing with something at work... I just need a better idea of which direction I'm going.






Thanks,

Mark

Definitely the second one...but, neither one will fit unless your JCW is a Clubman or you're able to modify either one to fit the coupe.

I like the second one. It matches the contour lines of the vehicle better. The first one is to square for the mini's application.

i'd say number one. it matches the way the car looks like. it adds a "sleeker" look to me.

Not a big fan of spoilers on street cars, but I think the first one would make your Mini look like a small pimped out 60s van that Mr. T and the "A" Team would drive.

Considering the scale, wouldn't you need Gary Colman to shave his head, grow a beard, put on severla pounds of gaudy chains and start screaming "I pity da fool, Willis!"

Second one, first is not bad, but it sits way to far forward, just doesnt look right.
