I've decided I want to get my mini colour coded and was just wondering if anyone has ever seen an R57 S colour coded?

Also I cant decide if I should get the JCW side skirts or just paint what I've got already?

All opinions welcome, I really cant decide what to do :confused::confused:

It's not an R57 but maybe this will help you consider your options.

Thanks for that, gives me a rough idea what it would be like :thumbs up:. I thought the new convertibles are R57s?

If you are going to do it then JCW skirts would look much better.

Thanks guys, I think I'll probably end up going with the side skirts... my only worry was that they might look too heavy with the soft top? Its soo tricky trying to decide when I've not seen another cabrio with it done :frown:

There are two on the Mini site JCW models but they have the side kit on.

Or why not get the full JCW bodykitt but dont colour code. Might work out much the same price.

I take its possible to do the same to r56 cooper, fit side skirts and possibly the aero spoiler?

that's nonsense...MINI even supply all trim pieces in primer!

Emma, have a word with chris @ woodmans on totalmini, they supply the jcw kit fully painted from the factory for only about £100 more than the cost of the skirts + paint. (if you buy the skirts only, they come primered not painted)
