That is the WORST design I have EVER seen for a body Mod.....
What were they thinking? That has got to devalue the MINI...
It looks cheap, and rushed... the styling looks like it was done by a guy who was fired from the BadBodyKits Company..

What a wasted effort...

First...

It's way to tall and wide... I doubt they even trimed up the original wells...
It is off the MINI mark in lines... none of the lines flow evenly WITH the original styling...Look at the front end... Horrible Looks like someones hat was blown apart.
This does not even mimic Original Mini Conceptual art.


I hope they Put A LOT of Money/Time and Effort into that....

It's got to be a joke!

Now that Mini Mania is selling the wide fender kit, I think it would be a good idea to get that and iadd t to your car rather than buy this sloppy mess of a body kit.

I'm not so sure that that border is white, and not faux chrome echoing the base of the windows. Not that that makes it any prettier...

I don't know if this helps any, becuse the body kit is ugly as sin. but you are able to put anytype of exhaust pipe you want. Supposedly you cut out where you want the exhaust outelt to be, so you could keep it in the middle without the ugly trianlge pipes. Hope it helps, probably doesn't.

I don't really like it at all, maybe if you took off the silver trim and changed the color it might be better, but I still don't know if I will like it.

I like the front spliter and the wide tires. But the other stuff is a little, no no a lot, to much.

It reminds me of one of those groomed dogs you see at the Westminster <sp>? Kennel show. Kinda foo foo.

My 3 cents,

looks like CRAP!! man, does anyone ever look at bodylines when designing these things? it looks like they just put giant fenders on it and called it a day. that's one mini i would be embarassed to own.
