The GTI looks really hot in all the pics.
The silver one at the start of the thread is particularly good looking. I haven't done any Euro styling on Rex (I think the JCW wing, adjustable suspension and maybe m7 (?) diffuser would be next) although a slammed MINI would be very cool.
Personally not a fan of the whole "poking" thing. I don't think the tires should actually protrude farther then the fender flares or wells IMHO

I just got a new GTI DSG for several different reasons, and in forthcoming months will starr modding it. However, will be getting another Mini shortly. VWs are so far beyond on the Euro look, but like others stated above, both Minis and VWs are great cars, it is good to have a thread to that brings both worlds together.

things i'd like to do to my "s" eventually:
-change gas to to cooper door
-shave handles (maybe)
-lower
-euro arches
-match arches/factory aero kit or probably wait for a subtle "grown-up" kit like the european cars get
-m7 front diffuser (maybe)
-maybe remove the rear spoiler (i'm not sure i'm sold on the look either way yet)
i think it would look pretty clean and simple. whether thats euro or not i'm not sure.
there are other euro things that i don't think would look right on a mini. poke, eyebrows, (as mentioned above) and dtm tips. the bigger tips from aftermarket exhausts would fill the rear better.

OT:
This car looks so angry...I noticed the same style of headlights on the new Camaro I saw at the auto show. The downward slant towards the middle mimics eyebrows and makes them look mad. Is this the new trend?
On the other hand, the MINI's large oval headlights give the car a happy, friendly look. it seems wide-eyed and eager to please.
I had a Jetta VR6 before my MINI. Very nice car! I don't do mods so I can't comment on that, I was just wondering about the angry-looking cars trend. My BF really likes the new VW GTI MK4, they're nice cars.

I do like the boser hoods though, I like the angry sinister look it gives like a hat pulled down over the eyes.
