Brandy_Brown Posted October 27, 2013 Report Posted October 27, 2013 Corey was redoing the mirrors and gas cap. decided to paint them as opposed to PD. So he primed, painted, wet sanded, and clear coated. He also blacked out the scuddles and painted the "S" the same orange. After much debate, we decided to also do the scoop, What does everyone thing Good or a little to much. We are on the fence. Sorry for the glare took the photos with my phone. http://www.dcmetrominis.org/forums/image.php?u=1132&type=sigpic&dateline=1367319111

Bert Posted October 28, 2013 Report Posted October 28, 2013 I think that it looks good. It is a different version of Celia's STRKS2. Ernie McStreet's facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/erniemcs.street

Poison Ivy Posted October 28, 2013 Report Posted October 28, 2013 Brandy I like it. It's different, but in a really good way.
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted October 28, 2013 Report Posted October 28, 2013 It's like a negative of early Tigger. He was orange with black mirror caps and snout. His current snout is body color again. Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman

Nice, I think your flames are safe. I don't think I have the artistic ability to do those. 1975 Mini 1000, 998cc A+ w/ K&N air filter, 10" Mamba wheels
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted October 28, 2013 Report Posted October 28, 2013 Nice, I think your flames are safe. I don't think I have the artistic ability to do those. I don't either, I paid someone. It would look cool with some nice orange flames :top: Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman

RDG_RCR Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 I think it looks great and appropriate for this time of year.
Brandy_Brown Posted October 29, 2013 Author Report Posted October 29, 2013 I can promise there will be no flames, i love the ones on Tigger but i could never do it, maybe if I had chosen pink instead. I think neon orange flames would be a little to much, I like her clean with a little makeup, Now to get the rest of the chrome off, got to figure out a way to do the door handles, Any Ideas? http://www.dcmetrominis.org/forums/image.php?u=1132&type=sigpic&dateline=1367319111
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 There are door overlays. Mark and I have the carbon fiber ones from Carbon MINI, they aren't cheap but they hold up well. I think you can get plain black ones too. Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
