haha thanks :)! 

I bought the mini in that colour. It used to be white and was re-painted in 2003 by previous owners. Only found out a few weeks ago that its BMW paint.. I cant get a ''100% free of BMW'' sticker lol  I dont mind tho. I really like the colour :)!

[Carlsmini]

The one on the right is for AA. I've got a 1960 AA badge at home, which I'm going to put on the grill for L2B which is coming up soon! :)

Cheers Steve :)! Definitely chuffed lol 

 

The rocker cover is original. Do you mean the air box attachment that reaches across the rocker cover?  Thats also original and was installed on the Mainstream Coopers :) RSP Coopers, that came out before, had the same attachment on the airbox but they didn't have the words ''Mini Cooper'' stamped on them.

 

 

I painted the motif white :)
