Going for the Eurosport/Eurotuner Look???
I kinda want to make my car look like the above described. I know lowering will do quite a bit... I was going to add spacers too, just don't know how much... Then I was going to add links or plates to control the camber... What else would you recommend I do to make my car look "Euro"??

To go Euro, you could consider the following:
1.) Remove all chrome on the outside
2.) Remove all badges
3.) Darkest tint you're willing to risk tickets for
4.) BBS rims
5.) Smoked out reflectors and tail lamps
6.) Paint it some form of silver or charcoal gray (like the Audi TT)
Good luck!

What euro are you talking about cause it definetly ain't from around here?
The post by Kenchan was probably more accurate. I live in Europe and I think what you are trying to achieve is the rally look without the rally stickers.
The look that jonnieoh does sound nice, but not really a Euro look.

Poke around these European sites and maybe you'll find the right look.

I love OZ Cronos too! I wish we could still get them.
Hmm Euro look MINIs. Living here in the UK you dont find that many Modded MINIs. Viper strips are common, and bbs rims seem to be getting a good foot hold in MINI world....depends what you want and if the cash affords it at the end of the day....

The Belt-Line was done with Black 3m tape and the Side Vents I got from a guy in the UK off ebay.

The red and silver cars above would probably be deemed 'tuner' style rather than euro. Both of them are absolutely beautiful (very nicely done guys)....but not in line with euro style.
