PlastiDip'd the wheels
I'm happy so far, seems like a great test to see if you really want black wheels. They looked great as Mat black, good as "glossy" black. They just didn't shine up as much as I thought they might. I bought the wheel kit from www.dipyourcar.com/

My 2013 R55 Mini Clubman (non s)
Out with the chrome...
Upgrades are:
1. JCW grill and trim
2. Black/clear turn signals
3. Black headlight rings
4. Tint
Still to come:
1. Smoke fender lights (need to install)
2. Mini carbon antenna (need to install)
3. Magnaflow exhaust (need to order) good?
4. Air filter kit (what should I get?)
5. Maybe plasti dip rims???
6. What other engine upgrades can I easily do?

Looks good, I think the biggest change is going to the black wheels. Kind of makes it look mean and lowered.
Good luck on the install.

My New 2013 Clubman S- Eclypse Gray
Dunno why my post from yesterday never showed, but I'll try again...
This is my first Mini and it's AWESOME! It won't be my last, I'm sure! I ordered it at around the end of April, but waited until just last weekend to take delivery because of the lease on my BMW. Boy, never thought I'd say this, but I sure don't miss the Bimmer (we've leased three 3 series and two 5 series the last 8 years and got tired of the poor gas milage).
Cheers all!

If you can get a direct link URL from your Flickr account, paste it into the message with these tags [img] before and [/img] after it, and that should work.
The linkable Flickr URL should look like this (before you add the tags).

Flickr is kind of roundabout when it comes to linking. I use ImageShack because it gives me a direct link.
