I have not yet received my cooper yet but i was thinking of ways to help it to offset the look as compared to the other minis on the road. I've considered painting the fenders the same color as the body. Has anyone else seen this or have any ideas or comments regarding this? I think it would give the car a more agressive look especially if you add aftermarket 18 inch rims too.

I'll try to photoshop something like that and see what it looks like.
I'll let you know when I've finished.

Try this web site. There are pics of painted "fender" minis, and some add-on kits, too. Good luck

Even better still is this link. It will take you directly to the page with the photos of minis with painted fenders.
