I came across these pics (iPhone crap I assume) on another non-Mini forum and thought you guys might be interested, unless they've been posted already. It appears to be a 3M carbon wrapped JCW!

Not sure I likey, although it would save polishing and waxing! :smilewinkgrin:

I don't get this. The main point of carbon is to save weight - wrapping it in fake carbon tinsel increases weight....

It's got plates on it for coopermini.co.uk so doesn't look like a park lane car Doug. ;)

I know, and that's why I don't get it - I don't get the 'carbon for show' thing; surely it should only be to save weight?
