It would definitely look better with a drop but I'm not sure I want to drop my daily driver.

I've had it about a month now. Mods so far: tint, 35% on doors, 20% elsewhere, cravenspeed iphone 5 mount, JCW black grill surround, short antenna, black scuttles.
Coming
very soon: black belt (have tape, will install ASAP), painted light rings (not sure if I should go black or red?), chromed orange turn signal bulbs...
Coming eventually: springs, 22mm RSB with endlinks, snows on dedicated wheels, CAI & exhaust.
This is what I had a month ago:
I had the r50 for almost exactly 10 years (less than a month short).

Same spot as the previous picture, but with the car sitting on the shoulder of the road in broad daylight.

Here is my horizon blue mini in its current state.
Eventually the lower picture is what I want my mini to look like.
Cheers!

Enjoying paternity leave! Watched several "dip your car video's on youtube" so today I took the plunge. This is my 1 month old MCS.

Plasti dip work is all done. Warning! Do not use red plasti dip on pepper white cars.
I painted the "cooper" in black and then decided to paint the "S" in red. Looked great until I peeled the excess red paint off the letter S. It appears that the red has stained the pepper white paint.

I removed the front rings. Was not sure if the rear ones required removing the light assembly. I removed the light assembly on my Audi and had a trunk leak ever since.
Here is the rear end done.
