Another New Mini!!

Hello, I just received my second Mini, an 05 Cooper. I bought the body color dash from the dealer and had the interior door handles and front grill painted at a body shop. Rear fog light to be added this week.

Love the interior.
Picking up the red with the chrome looks great!

Very nice! I've got the LY body-color interior but there's no yellow leather option, alas.

That's a cool look with the grill painted black mind if I try that on my pepper white baby? Did you use a gloss or flat paint?

Your best bet is to use black vinyl. It wont chip and is easy to do. I painted mine myself and was rather easy (super cheap ), but its slowly chipping after all of the highway miles i have been putting on. I'm changing over to vinyl once i order it
