Yes, great car, cool decals, and I like the Puerto Rican plate, chévere!
Black wheels are a nice touch. Now, tell us about the photo- your Clubman is in a b&w effect, no?
Kind of looks like Bayamón, where I lived back in the 70's.

Ichy600,
What a great grill look you have! Is that a green car with a black grill, with a green surround? Any more photos of that in the light?
And all these Clubbies look great- Germacian in black, and GP Billy in white!

Thanks. Yes the car is in b&w effect! But without the b&w effect is similar I can upload it latter without the effect. And the photo is in my house in Juncos PR.

Last photos before I get the winters off...







Actually, more like the "storage wheels" as this one did not see any salt this winter...

I don't know how to say this in any better way... Your wife has a nice rack (lol no offense). What brand is that guy? I'm debating between a cargo box and a mesh rack.

The wife does have a nice rack. lol. Mini cross bars powdered coated gloss black with yakima loadwarrior rack. It works great. Very little wind noise on the highway. Plan to use it for MOTD trip. Going for the rally look on her Clubman.

Sorry man but with no other red on the car they just don't do it for me. If you were able to pull in some more red accents it might grow on me.

Apex, this is a Mini friend of mine and he DOES have red accents. Boot and bonnet black stripes with red pinstripes. I believe he has some other red accents on L'il Devil! Those wheels are awesome! Just had to jump in and defend Ish!

Oh there are red accents, I am waiting for my primered side mirror covers to come in and am going to paint them metallic red and am putting metallic red carbon fiber tape on the beltline. I am thinking of replacing the red pinstripes with the same metallic red cabon fiber tape. the interior will have the dash trim metallic red as well and putting red armrests after the Dragon.

That makes a difference. I did not see the red in the other pics. With the other accents I think the red wheels are a supper addition. By themselves they are too different from the rest of the car. With the stripes and other accents it make sense.

Didn't want to offend but you asked for honesty.

Cheers!

No offense taken, I feel the same way but had to wait until I got the wheels in order to match the reds. I will be removing the red stripes and replacing them with red metallic foil boat stripe tape and ordered metallic foil tape for the belt line as well! That along with the metallic mirror covers should bring out the accents and tie in the whole color scheme I believe. I will be posting Picts at the end of the week when I get them done.

The red foil rims would look killer on an all black Mini if anyone wanted ideas on rims.
