Pepper white exterior mods

Hey guys,

I'm looking at modding the exterior of my Clubman make it look unique and more aggressive. What mods would you guys recommend and what color rally stripes would look best?

Maybe some black wheels? Black wheels on white care look fantastic.

Black and red stripes look great on a pepper white! Or red n blue.

Yes, yes, yes. And I vaguely recall seeing someone with lime green accents that looked awesome too.

I think that blacking-out the beltline (all the chrome strips, headlight surrounds, door handles, etc.) and putting on black wheels would look terrific. And, of course, dark tinting the windows would look awesome.

I'm not sold on the stripes. I think I would do the black-out treatment 1st and see how that looks.

Fully agree although I like the stripes as well. I plan to replace mine with flat black and recently put R105 JCW wheels on mine (not pictured).

that's a great looking PW. I got PW partly because I didn't think it was worth it to pay extra for the paint, that and PW looks classy. I was sorta regretting my decision to go with PW until you guys came in. Thanks so much for the help!

I'm a huge fan of black A-panels, something i never got to do to my first PW MINI and intend to do with my current PW Clubman. On the first one I had the PW aero kit as well, (06) but not today, unfortunately, as the aero Clubman offerings are DOA.

Exterior mods

I think 17 inch wheels would make it look more aggressive. There are many styles available on the market section or ebay that Mini owners are selling.

Also, on my Clubman, I had graphite squares roof wrap put on my black roof, to give it a subdued checker board look and I did the mirror to match.( see my gallery photos)

Also, hood stripes would make it more aggressive. I have duals stripes on mine but the wide single strip looks good also.
