ie. white "colour coding"? Ive seen one on MINI2 in electric blue, had the wheels done too, in my opinion it looked absolutely smashing :D

Although the front bumper in white shows up its lines and joins and to me looks a bit naff, would need to be aero bumpers jason/lesley ;)

Oh and of course norman will try to convince you its, 1) not his car and 2) your paying him for it. Hes just full of the sales patter ;)
Ain't ya norman :p

NO NO dont do it. If you really want to paint them then what about a gloss black like MaryC did. Check mirrors would look good though.
