I'm not sure if he's on NAM, but this is the meanest R56 that I've seen.

somehow I don't think that putting big cartoon eyes on a CAR is gonna make it look mean. I don't think it gets much 'cuter' than giving your car a cartoon face (i.e. the movie, Cars)

Anyone got some pics to share?
I've been to trying to get rid of the "cute" Mini. I think I succeeded.

Mine may be in the running.

Here's my "HeidII", not completely done with her yet. Still have to lower her and finish some black out (door handles and belt line). I'm also going to be doing a matte black roof, mirrors, and A & C pillars to match the rest of the matte black on my car.


I've been too busy at school to get a proper photo shoot in... :(

God I love your car & the body colored rings. But, why doesn't anyone ever put the stripes all the way down the bumpers? IMO it looks much better and it seems like only 5% of people with sport stripes extend them all the way down.

I was going to ask the same thing too.

I want to get sports stripes all the way down to bottom but I don't see dealer offering it.

Drew,
I purposely didn't put the stripes all the way down because (IMO) the car is obviously a small car and too narrow (again, IMO) to put the stripes all the way down.

For some reason, it makes the car look long and skinny and literally looks like the car is divided in half.
