I was always (and still am) a fan of MSFITOY's R53...

Yes, it's Tata Steva's Clubman, PEPPERNSALT. One of the best looking R55's around IMO.

Just WOW!! From top to bottom... Just my .02 cents.

The PW/B Cooper - I'm very confused about the headlights. I liked them and then I hated them...

The Camden - very clean and well done.

The BRG Cooper - a properly done Straight Cooper.

The bottom one: make up you mind, dude!!

HK - thanks for sharing these. I really do like seeing how far people take modding. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't!

Found the headlight "covers." Apparently the hood is molded over them. I'm going to try & replicate it using vinyl (painters tape 1st). The site for the original is tzart.co.jp

^^^^looks great - nice job - although I'm not sure how I'm feeling about the side view mirrors. Ever think about tinting your tail lights? I think it would look great on there - they sell film at Lamin-X that works well.

The taillights are aftermarket LEDs. They already have a light smoke to them. That is as much as I want to go. As for the mirrors, I have better vision with them. They are slightly convex and provide more coverage from side to side. Mirrors like these are definitely not for everyone, especially at the tune of $750. They are special order from CraftSquare in Japan.

I will not be debadging it right now.. Currently, I have CARBONMINI carbon fiber overlays on the MINI wing emblems. The COOPER S will stay for the time being. I have considered removing them. Shortly, I will be replacing the MINI wing emblems with BMW wing emblems. In parts of Asia, the MINI is badged as a BMW and I am fortunate enough to be able to get a hold of the emblems. They are coming out of Japan. I will be putting the CF overlays on them when they arrive. Most everything you see "blacked out" is carbon fiber with three exceptions - the JCW grille trim, the beltline, and the satin black taillight trim.
