Transformation has begun/green stripes installed!
Got the stripes on! Gotta say, I love the color combination. I also did something a little bit different with the spoiler and am still on the fence with it. I like it, because it almost looks like they're flapping in the wind, but yeh. I AM leaning more to liking it

An aero kit grill will be on the way next paycheck! Have to admit, I'm a little bit scared of the modifying needed to fit it, but hey, where's the fun without a little danger.
Anyone in kansas city area want to help with that?
As for the headlight rings and sidemarkers and joey mod: good ol paint. It's been done now for about 2 weeks and no chips or anything like that. Time will tell how well it holds up but hey, can always touch up with ease.
What I was also thinking was to black out the hood scoop. Just not sure how that would look, though
The plan is to get rid of all chrome. Then I was thinking either black or gunmetal wheels with a possible green time attack stripe on them

Will look more cordinated with the grill de-chromed. I prefer Chrome on a MINI, but to each their own.
I agree, it needs some green on the sides as well. Don't know if I would do a black scoup or a green grill though.

Well, I'm glad it's meeting all this approval! Good to know i'm going in the right direction
I thought the hood scoop would be a bit much, so i think i'm just leaving that as is.
I would like some advice on wheels, though, and color choices!

Great job, but for me I would have carried the stripes down the boot and on the hood-to the chrome grill or maybe even down the whole front end...
Just me though...as long as you are happy that is all that counts!

(i TRIED installing myself but that was a mega fail so i paid some pros to do it for 40 bucks. Well worth it to me)
that's actually kind of funny because i WANTED it down to the chrome, but something got lost between me and the installer and he stopped there. When i got there, I liked it enough, so i went with it
