R55 Dark Silver Clubman Owners Club?

I'd love to join in, just ordered our Club. First of Sept is it's due date. Any DS owners have pics of your lowered clubman w/17" rims w/painted arches? I know it's a tall order.
I've checked all the galleries and everyone seems to have 18's. I'm trying to avoid buying 18" rims. Can't wait to share pics!

Had it a month now...
So i've had one about a month now and what can i say, i love this think, so like any respectable Mini owner would do, i started adding bit to it.
So far:
Replaced all the indicators with Philips Silver Vision mirrored bulbs
Replaced the fog lights with Nokya Arctic White (S2) bulbs to match the Xenons
Replaced the side lights with PIAA W5W blue bulbs (not impressed with these, the Nokya's are a much better match to the xenons
Replaced the stock panel air filter with a K&N panel air filter
JCW Alcantara Shift **** and boot
20% Tint all round
Expecting my BBS RG-R 17x7 wheels tomorrow..
Best of all.. I just filled up for the second time (- what the dealer put in it) and i'm over 700 miles.
All of this is in an effort to try and retain my warranty and free service from BMW.
Photos in my gallery.. (sorry only have an iphone as a camera)

Nice ride! I've never seen the DS roof...pretty slick!!
I stand corrected. It looks pretty good. I prefer the rear silver because black shows every scratch.....and my wife has already scratched the bumper loading stuff in and out. It would be a tough choice for me on that color the lid should be though.
Good luck with the decision. I'm sure whatever you choose will look great!!

Thanks! After I ordered my Clubman, I tried to change the order to a black roof with bonnet stripes, but was erroneously told by my MA that it was too late/not possible (it was 6 weeks from production!). So then I thought it would be cool to paint the halos and bumper lid dark silver. But, the contrasting bits have grown on me. To protect the bumper lid I'll get the clear protection, since I'll be loading stuff in and out from time to time (gigs).
Thanks for the idea!!!
