How much would you expect it to be to paint the c-pillars? I think they'd look good the same color as the body.

i'm hoping for $500 or less. Not sure though. Originally i wanted the pillars the body color but have the upper pillar black to stream line it with the windows. But I'm assuming having two colors painted will raise the price. So i thought just painting the entire pillar black would still look good. It would tie in with my wheels.

At first I wasn't too hot on the color combination - my wife picked it out - but it has grown on me.

Would anyone have pics of an Ice Blue with Silver stripes?

When I configure it on the Mini site it looks good with a black roof but Silver stripes. But the ice blue color on that site is far from accurate. I wonder if anyone has that combination?

I added some to my NAM gallery, that were taken in Downtown Baltimore, under the Expressway. They came out pretty nice.

After ordering August 15th and waiting all this time, Maxine has finally come home:






So far, I'm very excited. Have to bring her back into the dealer to get some Hot Chocolate interior trim pieces installed.

Cheers,
Colin

Wow! Can hardly call it a Justa! Nice details.
Interior? I'm guessing black seats with red color line.

Thanks! It's true...starting to look very JCW's in style...which I'm okay with

I haven't taken any interior pics yet actually. I should get on that. Black leather seats. Black interior with red and silver accents and trim pieces. Red LED ambient lighting.

It's all coming together nicely
