Looks like you picked up a cool MINI. But you should have the hood painted the body color, paint the inner grill black & add the mesh, and paint the fog surrounds black.

Like so

sweet ride! I'm jealous of the leather seats. I've never seen the Orciari booty before, but I like it too. You've made a great decision. Enjoy!

Nice! I had put a down payment on that a few weeks back but opted to go for a stock one. K&N intake and a pulley I think on it as well. Nice buy! low miles and good price!

Nice! I bet it is super quick with the 19% pulley. I'm still looking forward to getting a 15% myself

Very interesting look. If you were to paint the hood you would lose the individuality of the carbon fiber, don't know about the roof?

I can't believe that you just appeared! I purchased a 2004 in EB last week, and the first two things on my "to-do" list were:
1. paint match the fenders, and side skirts
2. Pick up some s-lites and paint them blue

Can you tell me if these wheels are powder coated, or just painted? I was thinking of just painting them myself because I will probably want to change the color often.
