Anyone seen this before?

It's VeilSide's Vogue body kit.

I think it's pretty cool. I really like the side skirts a lot. Hop you all enjoy if you haven't seen it yet.

+1 for the side skirts - the rest is too busy for me (the wheels don't help)

+2 -- The side skirts are cool and flow with the MINI's design; front and back are a bit chaotic and distracting.

I plead the 5th on the wheels.

I think the front would have looked better without the bottom most slits, maybe if those were just lip like extensions it would look nicer.

I'm also thinking the white in the kit might look better in body color, maybe not for the front.

I've never really like Veilside as well. Bomex was the nicest looking Japanese kit company in my opinion. Not too ricey...

That pink girl's kit...ugh. Should be on the toy shelf right next to Hello Kitty, Negima schoolgirls, Rumble Rose female wrestlers, military Mecha Musume, and Fairy Musketeers...

If one's wife owned the MINI in the family, that is one way for her to ensure that you'll never borrow it.

I have like very few of their full kits. They get some of the parts right and completely FUBAR the rest.

+1 What's next a Jdm Mini cooper? I am all for people expressing their inner artist on their rides but ricing out a mini? That might be considered Cooper abuse, you go to jail for that sort of stuff
