I think it's a great job you did in Photoshop. I don't however care for the digital mods you've done. Just not my cup O tea.

I do however like your real world MINI.

It is a different look than I would go for on my car, but I really like it. That is the great thing about MINIs.
I prefer the first wheels.

I like the first one, but I don't think I'm crazy about blacking out the headlight surround. May just be the way it looks photoshopped. Love the andonized red look. I like the last one too

Yeah the photoshop will only give you a hint on how it will look, if it was painted it wouldn't be all matte black like it looks now, it'd flow with the paint and reflect like it so yeah, the mirrors would be more red, now they look like red/black mettalic something.

The roof just didn't go well with white checkers, maybe it'd look better with a black roof or red roof?

probably a pain in the ****, but I think you need to flip the coloring of the checkerboard. Red sqares black, black squares red. For some reason I think it would make the car look better.

Oh, and to the 1st one.

I like the first red the best. In fact, I think the roof red should be made more of the metallic/black like the mirrors look as that's really slick in my book. I also like the red around the rims with the middle of the wheel black. That coupled with the red having the black feel gives the car a very subtle but agressive/mature look. I think the bright red risks becoming more cartoonish.

Of course, I'm all about understating the looks and letting the performance do the talking...

How about a red grill to go with the red top?
