Congrats!!! Nice looking Mini.

As far as a name. It's a very nice shade of blue. Maybe something referring to H2O (water symbol) or something along the lines of sky blue?

Examples...
H2O Cooper
H20 Pilot
H20 Surfer
Deep H20 Roadster
Sky Rider
H2O RC (RC = radio controlled - like in the rc cars)

Get the idea?

Very nice, I like the CF and JCW bits. Very refined!

Of course, I am partial to DS MINIs.

Diablito, I wanted to see the car without the processing as well (although I don't think it qualifies as strange), and it looks great au natural as well as processed. Thanks for posting it.

The CF scoop looks great with DS & black stripes.




Now you need some interior bling.

wow it was taking me a while to clip all the dark silver pix..and mean while you guys posted on my picture..

Thank you, I been practicing trying to obtain the 300 look on my pictures, you know like the feature film. But I like the natural look of things also hehehe cheers!

My tech took the intake scoop out as well as the rear lic. plate holder so the stripes follow thru.

P.S. how bout some pix from the back end.

Nice!! I like the few blackout things you've done without going "all black". Looks great with the DS/B.

That Europlate actually looks like a little hoochie-thong plate action.
