Thank you
but now I want to powder coat my wheels black with semi-gloss. BTW, I love the stripes on yours!! I wanted those so bad!
Chrome hood scoop or Black notch style?
Hello my white silver comrades,
I am looking to change my hood scoop on my car and I want to know what ya'll think if I were to change it to chrome with all my other chrome pieces besides my front grille(it is black) or this http://www.outmotoring.com/notch-style-hood-scoop.html , it is called the black notch style. Please let me know what you guys think, I think it looks fantastic especially with the black trim on my front grille.

never been a fan of the chrome scoops, but that's a matter of personal opinion. I am interested in seeing more pics of the one from Out Motoring, one thagt shows the whole front end of the car. I like that the mesh style matches the main grille but not sure if I like the overall shape. but again, that's going to be a matter of personal opinion.
Considering the white silver option
You all have lovely cars! I am considering going with the white silver but I seem to be the only person who likes this car with white stripes. What do you guys think? Would this be weird? I found one old Mini with this look, but the silver is more true silver.

That looks really nice. Great idea with in-versing the stripes. So is the color closer to white or closer to silver? In this pic it looks more silver. When I saw one in person, I remember it looking more white. I don't think that the dealer near my house has one anymore for me to check in person. I keep looking for one when out driving, but so far no luck.

Hi everybody ! It's so great to see so many beautiful white silver MINI's ! Starting today, I'm a proud owner of a R57 MCS Cabriolet. I live in Switzerland, so it's an European MINI. Here's a shot of the beauty:

... meet Miss Billie Jeans !
The mirror caps and stripes were made specially for her, in a metalized blue color, in order to match the denim blue soft top, hence the nick "Miss Blue Jeans".

jalvani,
I see you have MD tags. Where do you live? I also have the same color (2011 MCSa) and am in Baltimore County (Pikesville). I am looking for a motoring buddy. You also said "One-Touch Sunroof, Window & Sunroof Close from Fob". Does the 2012 come with those features or is there some mod that I can do to get that functionality? Please let me know...I hate having to hold the sunroof button to open the roof all the way. I can get my windows to open with the fob but not close.

Regarding the sunroof & fob, those are NCS Expert software mods. It's a little fiddly to get it working, but check out the NCS Expert Beginner's Thread if you're so inclined.
Shoot me a PM if you want to talk more about either of these guys.
