OMG I love PW! How come you opted out of the JCW skirts?

 

From the pictures, I only see the JCW front.

 

VERY interesting, first time I've seen a MINI with the JCW front only. Also I like how you were able to get the amber out of the front lights. Any info on who did both that and your headlight/taillight/grille blackout???

every so often a car jumps out and says this is good and this is one...nice black outs, very clean and balanced...once it's lowered it will take on a different personality....i saw one the same color in California which had at least $80 grand put into it with sparkling white arches and fiber carbon splitter...just amazing....very good work

 

Ichy600,

A lot of people think that PW is a 'chick' color. Yours dispels that myth. Nice job!

 

Perfect combo! That's what I hope to do with mine. I love the JCW front bumper, but I could do without the rest. This confirms that just the front looks awesome with the rest of the factory parts.

Great job!!!

Here's an updated pic of Astro...blacked-out the beltline.

 

those are some low-profile tires! Love the all black look!

 

VERY nice!!! What size/brand wheels/tires are those??? I'm loving them.

 

Are those 19" or 20"? How's the ride? Gotta finish the beltline on mine. Looks nice. Is that 3M tape?

 

Delivered Nov 9 and now Motoring in Seattle, WA

 

Hey, an MC with an MCS grille and right above you (post wise) an MCS with an MC grille.

My one month old MINI~

 

Nice Blackout job. Try the beltline. It's easy.

Very nice! If you are brave, try windshield tint on the side markers on the wheel arches. I find the bright orange and red distracting on mine.

 

Looks like you are enjoying your car. See my gallery if you want to see the same color modified. Best of luck!

 

check mine out...no pun intended!

How hard was it to get to the door handle? I did it on my R53 but haven't heard of anyone doing it on an R56 yet.

 

http://www.lylesvinylstyles.net/mini does it for the r53 and r56....among other things..

 

Yeah, but how hard is it to get the handles off? And do they have covers for the comfort access handles (extra button on handle)?

 

Right, but its the installation thats a pain in the ***. You have to remove the inner door panel to get at the door handles, I just hadn't heard of anybody doing it yet. There's bound to be some hidden screws just like there are in the R53, and it would be a HUGE help to know where they are before I start trying to rip the panel off.
