While I always see great cars here, there is always one thing that ruins a potentially great looking Mini.....that would be no center cap on aftermarket wheels! Time and effort is taken to mod your car. Money is spent. Pictures are taken.......and no center cap? Just a perception of mine and what I feel is an image breaker. Otherwise great job everyone!

Lowered on Texas Speedwerks springs. Thinking about powdercoating the s-lites black or going with new wheels altogether!
