The Dealer had it done for us at a body shop that they trust near them. The hubby thinks it was $500 for the roof and the mirrors but I thought it was $400 - it doesn't matter... we LOVE the way it came out!

Nicole,

Now that is nice, congrats on great MINI and what appears to be a super drive, nice twisty signage.

Since I don't know I will ask. Does PS only come as PS/PS? Looks really nice with the custom white and white mirrors.

labelexec, thats a very nice one

I have the OZ UL as well. First I bought black OZ UL in 17" than swapped to silver OZ UL in 18".

Black OZ`s look terrific on the blue MCS.

One more thing, I would paint those fender arches to the body color. I believe then those wheels will look better.

How did you black out the headlight rings? Are they painted? I have a blackout kit for the beltline and I have the black JCW grill trim to put on also. I would rather have black or carbon fiber headlight rings, but can have them painted if necessary.

no, I have been driving the mini and ignoring the FJ...kinda sad. I need to wash and wax the FX. I put a bunch of scratches in her recently and I am scared to clean her and find how deep and how many there are.

I do like the white and mellow yellow combination. Thanks for posting the nice pictures.
