Just wanted to show you a couple of photos of my new wheels!

I'm slowly making my mini "my own", so I've already made a few modifications, but I'm happy with how it all looks.

I've been to an Irish bog and have tried running across one (it was an organised event, don't worry!). All I can say is not even 8 wheels would help in trying to get across one!

I like the colour, looks great against the red.

Nice mini.

Thanks, I think it offsets nicely against the red shell and the black bumpers & headlamp rings too, not too harsh.
