Here's my recently acquired 2009 MINI Cooper S. (note I still need to take a better picture of it, but I'm still very proud.)

My MINI "Tux" had a great time out on the snow storm that hit the Ohio river valley a couple weeks ago. Bring it on ! This MINI is ready.

Here are a few I snapped with my iPhone yesterday. Just got her back from a local paint shop- switched side mirrors to Chili Red. Really transforms the look. Now it's time to consider the most appropriate way of eliminating the dreaded wheel gap.

New white wheels/mirror caps

Painted the wheels and mirror caps about a week ago. I decided to clean it up a little while the weather was nice and take a few pics.

Enjoy!

Enjoy!

Your MINI looks great with the white top and mirrors. Especially the white rims brings out the look!

Mine is the opposite as it's black.

All grayscale colors look so good with the Chili Red accessories... and of course the roof if you can get it.
