hi, just been having a play with some bits on my car,
first thing was making a back spoiler, using one of the front ones i sell.
at the moment its just cut to shape, but i'm just seeing if i like it before i finish it.
i do like it too, so it'll be getting fettled and painted.

what do you think?

also ive blacked my bumpers and the surround on the front grill, just with black tape on the grill to see what it looks like.

what do you think about that?

Think your car needs the chrome to be honest, otherwise it'll start to look too dark. :thumbsup:

Although the spoiler is probably the nicest I've seen on a mini, it's still not nice in my opinion, the shape of a mini just makes them look naff I reckon.

I like the black surround and bumpers though

That really suits the car in my opinion, and I'm not usually a fan of spoilers :lol:

ha ha ha, do's look bad, more moody than before.

iv'e looked at pictures of it with the chrome on and it seems to stand out too much, i still keep the rest of the chrome on though.

i love everything about this car :P and the spoiler Definitely goes well with the diffuser and arches!

thanks
i think it works well, might not on another as much but i like it.

might have to look into it, alot of people seem to ask about them.

i think i just fell so deep in love with your mini ive kind of just given up hope on mine =|

glad people still like it, can't be much more i can do body wise to it.

Agreed. I like the grill edge but not so sure about black bumpers
