To me, wheels have the biggest impact in terms of how the car looks. Nothing else has such a large effect on the overall appearance of the car.

Edit: There's about 6 kajillion bags on that website. Try this link for that specific bag:

I've pretty much done everything: black out, new wheels, BBK, de-badged, sharkfin antenna, CF headlight rings, aero grille, smoke lenses, dark window tint. In the end even the MINI club members don't even notice any of it... Like Livia Soprano said (and I paraphrase) "in the end, it's all for nothing. You die in your own arms."
I'm the only one who really cares how my car looks, so that makes one.
btw, the wheels...

After seeing this post this morning I mention this little job to the DH (Darling Husband). He actually purchased the paint today while he was out running around. After a few hours I took a trip out to the garage to see what he was up to. He was painting the calipers on his GT500, not my Mini. What's up with that? No, he had just not got around to doing his as of yet. Since he ordered new brake pads for the GT500 the other day he figured he'd do his before they came in. So my calipers are in line somewhere.

Edit:
Anyone had their calipers painted long term... like two or three years ?
I'd be interested to know how the paint holds up. Any need to re-paint them ? If so, how often ?
