Wasnt sure about this one.. I went for it and now I really like the look... I need to lower the car now...
Warning, this isnt for everybody! On my R53 I blacked it out and had carbon everything.. I need CHANGE! haha
Enjoy! (sorry for the filthy car)

 

somehow along with the black cloth top contrast, the woodie mirrors work

 

Thats what I was thinking.. I was pretty skeptical when I got them but if gives the car a wise old man look... haha

 

looks cool

 

Thanks!

 

You've got a great looking car. I feel like it would be very hard to make your JCW roadster look bad. I hate any kind of wood on sporty cars but this doesn't look too bad, although if it were me I'd never do it. Props for doing something really different and out there. I would have probably chosen the same red from your calipers to get a little more pop.

 

Like.....

 

Very cool

 

Thanks fellas.

 

I saw these (or similar) up on the marketplace. They look awesome! Good find!

 

Thanks! Yes! I actually sent my old set and had them painted by the member selling them in the marketplace. He did a fantastic job!
Somebody else with power-fold mirrors also has a set... haha

 

Honestly, It'd be a cold day in Hell before I'd go that route on my MINI but it really does look nice on your Roadster. In fact as I scrolled down and caught the first glimpse I thought what....the...he...ey that looks pretty cool! The more I scrolled down the more I liked it. Nice job doing something out of the ordinary. That's what I love about MINI folk!

 

Looks very nice

 

Looks sharp enough to give me a Wood EEEEE !!!!

 

Thanks everybody. I too was surprised that I liked it so much.
Your right, thats what makes MINI people cool. each car is personal and a hell of alot of fun to make your own.

nice one night flyr haha

 

Class.

 

No, no, no, noooooooo!

 

Sorry Synzeus... its to late

 

It reminds me of Buick Estate Wagons...
Still you do have a unique look

 

haha nice
Thanks!

 

i think it looks great. wonder tho, shouldn't you have to smoke a pipe and maybe wear a bit of tweed whilst driving now?

 

Very classy! Upscale.

 

Matching "Woody" hood scoop ?!?!?!?!

Or matching interior trim.

 

thanks everyone. Yes I'm going to need a pipe and a monocle now!

I thought about hood scoop. But I think I'm going to keep it simple. Possible the dash but not sure. we'll see.

 

I would think NO, to the hood scoop. I believe the attractiveness of the contrast is in large part due to its minimalism. Or,.....Less is More
