Here's another shot of my R56 I took the other day while out motoring:
NICE!

Did you hold the camera out the window or mount it to the car?

PS - thanks for the compliment!

Good call Red Bull... ghost ridin' my whip.

I held the camera out (strap tied to my wrist). Probably not the safest setup, but it was an empty country road and I was going much slower that the shot implies.

We use those same wheels on one of our shop cars (EVO 9) and I love them! nice choice. I haven't seen them on a MINI before!

Lyle wrapped them instead of having them sprayed...yes they were removed and it is not an easy task. If I was doing it myself I'd spray them too...but not with plasti-dip - I'd use krylon fusion - satin black
