I shoulda been #1, but was too lazy to create a Paceman specific one and posted over in the Countryman Blazing Red Group.

No clue how you did the small attachment, so here's a huge version from my gallery.

Hello Paceman-Drivers,

after a few MINIs (Hatch, Clubman, Countryman) I was happy that BMW annonced a 2-Door-Countryman a few years ago.
I drove a Countryman for 1 year but I always missed the coupe-feeling from my old R56/R55.

Last December I ordered my Paceman and i received it in April/May 2013.

It drives better than the Countryman and it's bigger than the Hatch. Perfect!


I made some reworking at the Headlights and the front grill with black film.
And the JCW exhaust is a must-have!





Here are our two current MINIs:


Sorry for my broken english.
Best wishes from Germany.
Martin

Your pictures make it look orange instead of red - it must be the lighting. Nice black out job though!

Blazing Red is MF color! It changes "shades" depending on light... You probably noticed that already... Very hard to photograph. It must be that "1/2 metallic" factor...

Martin did a great job on black out! I am next...

@chanclor: I like your side graphics a lot. This was my first choise, too.

Since I bought the Paceman I'm looking for the perfect side stripes.
It's harder to make a good side graphic for the Paceman than for the other MINIs.
On the other MINIs you have a flat surface. The Paceman has this wave at the bottom of the door.

If you have any Idea please post it here.

Sorry for my broken english but I hope that you understand me.

I was partial to the checker design, but this site has alot of options. I would think anything that would work on a countryman would look ok on the Paceman too. It's almost the same length.

Given that you are in the 'Paceman Talk' area then you've figured it out....

I didn't see a blazing red owners lounge in the countryman section... a search for blazing red brought me here... Didn't even see the paceman distinction, honestly lol
