I did a few similar minor cosmetic upgrades to both of my MX5's in the past and I think these subtle changes can really lift the look of the car, and I think yours is a success :thumbup:

I'm not a fan of full on pimping of the ride, although I know some people are really into modding their cars.

I recently got some Msport colours for the grill of my BMW which I think works well but that's probably all I'm going to do to it.

That look spot on Ferg.

Just the right amount of colour and detail to make it pop without looking garish or OTT.

I don't think though it would have worked so well on your previous MINI. The colours would have clashed.

You've done well.

To be fair, it's not.
I'm not a guy to make out something is not what it is but I just personally like the look of the grille on the car.

Thanks Patrick, as you say little differences. Won't be doing a lot more if anything.

JCW Pro mirror caps and a JCW Grille.

Absolutely delighted with them, has given the car a fantastic new look.

When are you buying the eyelashes for the headlights then Ferg?? :lol:
It will be a frozen day in hell before that happens mate :lol:

Only one step away Ferg.

And besides, on that cold day in hell, you will probably still have the bloody roof down!

Now there would be a sight for sore eyes, Ferg topless fluttering his new eyelashes. Where’s Korkki with the photoshop when you need him?! :lol:
