We've thought about how much we might like chrome details around the fenders, but chrome is NOT an accent for plastic. It is an accent for metal. If MINI had metal wheel arches, then MAYBE it might look good. . .

Yucca, you are onto something. Replace all the plastic with chrome.

I'm inspired...

Yea a MINI Woodie would be embarassing
double entendres notwithstanding, no self respecting woman would allow one of these to park in her garage.
nudge, nudge

Nope. . replace all the plastic with METAL and then add classic chrome accents. . . My old 1983 Mercedes looked great with chrome arches, but it didn't have any body work designed by rubbermaid!

I thought it was tape also. Maybe it was the light or something. But, I thought they looked yuck.

Not all Woodys are bad. I hope the new MINI estates can be half as cool as the original Mini Woody.

I guess it's supposed to emulate the trim on the classic Mini, but still not a look I would like.
