Can't really see the brake calipers...if they're red too, I imagine they tie in nicely...

opening up the headlight (removing the clear glass part) and painting the interior parts that aren't used to reflect light....the headlight is then sealed back up.

After seeing this I expect to see a few more scoops painted black inside. Now paint your grill trim body color.

Agreed, and BLACK OUT THAT BELTLINE!!!!

The scoop looks great. Is that painted, or vinyl?

I'm not a fan of the red caps on yellow, but black out the chrome, add clear or black side markers and I'd rock it Nicely done on the scoop....we've done that on a few Legacy GT's and it looks very nice

I really like all of this, but where did you get those Team Dynamics!? They look hot(sorry for the Paris Hilton verbage). I have been looking for other TD wheels than what outmotoring sells.

Agree with the majority, the hood scoop is very cool.

Not sure I like red mirror caps with a yellow MINI but A+ for You-niqueness.

I'd get rid of those orange side repeater lenses, too.

the hood scoop is painted...took it of, masked it, done (also, the fog light surrounds and behind the middle grill is painted black)

The wheels came from Helix...special order

ehhh...i have a yellow MCS but IMHO im not digging it ...MAINLY because im not a fan of the color matched roofs ...if it were black roof the red caps would look good and a joey mod is def in place and the wheel arches def keep black again IMHO only certain minis look good with color matches arches ...yellow is not one of them
