Thanks - I love how the green stripes on your car accentuates the lounge green interior. Thats a great look as well

No, I didn't notice that Lounge Green isn't available anymore. I am under the impression that there weren't many who ordered lounge green.

This is my gf's new Mini. Plans to black out the chrome, stubby antenna and exhaust. So far.

I've been looking for the window stickers with Name and Flag like you have on your car window. Did you get this online somewhere? Ive been really working on making my car look Rally car like. I would love to get some of these made.

BTW. Car looks awesome!

We've got the same car (I think) - I like what you've done with the plasti-dip. I replaced my grill with the black John Cooper Works grill and I think I'm going to plasti-dip the headlight rings, but I would leave the hood scoop alone. I like the way it looks.

I'll try to get a better picture of my car uploaded as the one I previously uploaded was very small.

oohhh wait - your's is green. Doesn't look that way in the picture.

My 2 cents... Leave the hood scoop alone. Blacking out the grille trim was a must, though.

Well, I looked at those wheels long and hard for awhile - I decided they wouldn't work as well with a PW/B, but they work perfect on an EG.

Funny thing about your car... About a month ago I was going to trade mine and configured your exact car. EG/W is an awesome combination! And with the Borbet's, it sets it off even more. Well, well done!
