Pink graphics?

Hey guys. I'm in the market for a R53 right now and have been enjoying checking out all of the awesome graphic some of you guys have.

Does anything have any pink graphics on their cars? I time attacked my Z4 wheels pink for fun and I would love to do something similar for the MCS. I'm thinking something subtle and sophisticated, like a pink outline on a white graphic, etc.

Has anyone done anything like this?

My old wheels:

Pink would be a fun accent colour on white or black, but I don't feel it with the blue car and taupe top.

Don't like the blue with the pink - personally that is.

White works well with pink. I have seen a MINI with lots of pink on it but she does not frequent these forums so I doubt there are any pictures of her car her. But I will see if i can find one on another forum.

Well you are talking to us R56s which is cool. Go big or go home get an all pink MINI. There are 2 in Hawaii and they look awesome.

As I said, I did them for fun. The wheels were in poor shape so I painted them to make a statement about timeattacking at Bimmerfest. They stayed on the car for about two more months until I got my ACS Type IIs then they became my dedicated track wheels. I actually got a lot of compliments on them when they were on the car.

The unfortunate thing is that I really don't like pepper white. It looks dirty to me. My first choice color is electric blue which I think COULD handle a white decal with a pink highlight around the edge, but no more than that. There is an 04 Pepper white for sale near me with low miles at a good price. If it is still available when my Z4 is gone I'm definitely going to check it out, but I don't want to buy a car just for the graphic potential. That's why I'm curious to see what others have done first.

Dammnit-- I scrolled down to far and put this in the wrong section. Please tow.

Pink can go with blue, but it really looks better with a light blue. Get a white MINI and paint the roof pink and put matching pink bonnet stripes on it. Then call it a MINI Rose after the classic Rose edition. That'd be sweeeet!!!

I have an electric blue with a black jack on the roof and mirrors. I have red as an accent color...but somehow I think the blue of JohnnyVillians car works better for pink.
(It is kinda hard to de-cute an electric blue car with a white roof...pink would just make it look that much 'happier'...sounds weird, and thats just my opinion of course).

Here are some pics of some pink stripes that we did at AMVIV.
IMO they look great on the laser blue. I was skeptical at how it was gunna look at first, but loved the way it turned out.










Or we could wrap the whole thing in pink for ya!
