Here is Bing, a MCS owned by a MetroplexMINI.org member, DXTurner. It's an exclamation mark (hence the name 'Bing') made w/ the MINI's rear tail light design. He also has a grey lower side stripe that echo's the same design.

yikes...

i'll just be honest with you. ive seen far too many beautiful volkswagens defiled with tacky, over-the-top body kits and odd paint schemes. the mini is a beautiful car on the outside, and if you ask me keeping with a very, very simple oem+ look and spending the rest on engine and or suspension mods is your best idea.

That's funny never even noticed that before. I think this is a little over the top form the orginal post though.

I Have done so many Original exterior jobs that it would be hard to festure them all.

How about the RED 5
