Wow, great looking mini. That rear shot looks brilliant. What about some group 2 arches, if they are wide enough. They have a retro look.

Cheers, I'm also a big fan of green cars, especially the db9 :) took a while to grow but now I think they look the bees knees.

group 2s look best on 10" rims IMO, depending on what brakes you have can also affect the look though as S discs and the 8.4 type (if you have alloy 4 pots and machined down discs) flanges give different track widths. and also if you have spacered drums on the back to match or not.

im not really into the tinted lens film stuff, unless its on german stuff, but im guessing from the arosa in the background your drawing influences from the vag/dub scene, personally i dont think minis cross over into this look,

but, having said that your mini looks really good, and appart from the colour is pretty much exactly the same as mine!

lots of point! 998 turbo's are ace!

your mini is very nice indeed, just keep the specials on, underrated as an arch.

Yeah think im gonna get the group 2's now, also gonna purchase some hi los so it will sit nicely in the arches, im not a fan of the current ride height. In your opinion.... i think going down the retro look and the old school vag it works well.
