Upload your picture somewhere like imageshack, flickr, etc and then they will give you a link or you can right click on the image, copy image location, and then in your post here you click the insert image button and paste the URL.

This is what my URL looks like from flickr:

OK, I just found this thread. Here's my dark silver/white. I just got this a couple months ago. I added aero front grille, tinted the windows, and put the meatball numbers on the sides. Also blacked out the window beltline.
Next thing is to replace the wheels. Thinking about going for a full black or graphite wheel.

How did you black out your rear signal light trim?

Nice find on DIY for the tail lights. Completely understandable even though I couldn't read a word.

basically. put the light in the oven at 250 for 8 min or dremel. pry it apart. prep the surface, paint, and reassemble with new sealant.

Thanks, I checked the Dutch link. I am doing this next week!! Our dark silver MINIs look perfect with this kind of mod!
Hey, it might look good with dark silver body color on the inside instead of black... I might try painting it that way one time and see how it looks.

Changed my brake light bezels to body color. A little more Dark Silver never hurts! LMAO and I like it.

PS: That's a mandatory MINI MOD on the bumper!

The rear lights came out so well I did the fronts today. In the dark it looks downright sinister. It is!
