Picture of all pepper white

Can anyone point me to pictures of a pepper white without black roof? I ordered it this way but am thinking of going all white. Having trouble finding a picture of a recent all white that does not have an aero kit
Thanks

Thanks for the quick response. Hard call. Both roofs look nice-PW or BLK

I am a bit biased but I prefer the matching roof on the Pepper Whites.




More pics in my gallery.

mwedge, that's a fine lookin' mini. I see you got the clear/white directional signals as well. They yellow would have spoiled the look.

Thanks for the compliments. I am very happy with the way my MINI is coming together. I agree on the clear signals, however I had the orange signals when I bought the car and have changed them out.

If you have to think twice, don't.

The simple, unadorned black roof on pepper white is by far the classiest-looking of the 2-tones, IMHO. Especially if there's a sunroof. And in any case a black roof balances the standard black around the bottom of the car and flows with the black window pillars.

(disclaimer: mine's all chilli red, and I haven't seen a colour scheme I actually dislike)

I'm partial to the black roof myself for the same reasons as red R56. But the all-white is purty, too.

Definitely get the clear turn signals - it really looks nice on the PW.

Those pictures are some pretty brilliant arguments in favour of all white. Love the matching stripes on the roof!

Hellion I must compliment on that MINI. I have always wanted to c the b4s and afters of aero kit install. I ordered a aero on my 09 s. It is one of things I am most excited about.

i do like the PW/W combo with bonnets- reminds me of a saltue to the italian job.

but i think PW/B is edgier- adds a little more punch to the look.

but honestly, either look is awesome. it took me 2 months to choose one.

My last MINI was an 06 MCS PW/W with aero. It's really something else when all white. I'd have probably done the aprons too if I couldve borne it financially...
