I designed a BRG roof graphic with Cooper Flags. Looks kinda cool. I also recommend the Ocairi (spl?) hood scoops in white. And, even a nice white stripe down the side (like myself). I also have two white boot stripes.

have fun!

 

The paint is Testor's British Racing Green (a near perfect match btw). Yes, that is model paint, but then again, those parts are plastic anyways.

For BRG leather interior bits, contact LeatherZ. They can match just about any color, and custom make just about anything.

However, when I asked them about this last year, the cost for a shift boot was over $300. This was because they would have to special order the correct color leather.

Now, if we found enough poeple for a group buy, we could get that price to drop dramatically.

I think BRG/W is the ideal color combo for a Union Jack. (CR and Black look great with the UJ too.)

You can get one that goes over your sunroof glass from a couple of places, including Cooper Flagsand Mini Cooper Parts.

Nice shamrocks...where'd you find them?

Touche!

The "Shamrocks" are Alfa Romea racing badges.

The top one looks like it is from an old GTV, but I could be mistaken.

It must be the Model Master's stuff. I have two spray cans and two bottles of it at home. I tried it on the plastic rings surrounding the dash light switch and hazard swtich, but they came out really dark. Did you prime them with grey?

>>hey kumquat, a few more questions... those lamin-x tints... are they the ones sold through mini-madness? do they look like they were stuck on or do they look like the lights themselves? also, does anyone know if they're illegal in ny?

I got the ones from MINI madness. The dealer was kind enough to install them for me (Mahwah). Did a pretty good job, looks killer. I'm in NJ, have been pulled over 3 times with them on, no ticket for them specifically any time. I work with a few cops who told me that they would give me a ticket for them if I was a jerk.

All depends on the cop.

 

rob --- this car mat place is awesome. thanks for the tip.

laclede - that green model paint looks great in your car... will have to look into it.

i'm definetly in with a group buy if anyone else wants green shift / ebrake boots.
