R53 "panel" MINI?

Someone told me a guy on MU is doing this with a clubman, but I'm wondering what itd look like on an r53 with the rear side windows, and the hatch window removed and filled and painted to match, sorta like on the panel version Chevy HHR's.

Honestly I think on mine (all black) it wouldn't look bad but I don't know about any other color. I say this becuase my windows are already tinted completely black, so it wouldn't stand out as much with the filler panel in place of the window.

I'm just wondering, I may or may not do it, most likely won't, but I think it would be cool and different for sure.
