Exterior Updates

After a significant amount of searching i finally found a bodykit that i want.  Actually it's parts from two different BK manufacturers.

Garbino-JDM. Found the kit, but can't find a stateside vendor that inports them....yet.   I'll be using the front clip and side skirts from this kit.  I like the clean lines and mixture of the JCW/orciari front bumper and the not retarded side skirts

Zeemax-British company.  This is the best looking rear bumper i've found so far.  Notice the wide fender flares....I'll have to flute the side skirts from the garbino kit to match the wider profile on this kit.  All the extemporaneous pieces are getting molded to the car body anyway.

The replacement carbon wing from alta performance.  looks nice without being overly gaudy...

Nice start. I was wondering about the rubber mats...are they even worth it? As for agreement/disagreement you were asking for, I like the fact that there is no armrests. I find it easier to reach across the vehicle or into the back. I do wish the cupholders were bigger though. I like all the chrome you are using. I am doing a chrome/black mix. I really dig the interiors of the minis so I will only accent the interior. I do plan on adding some tv's and such on down the line though. Feel free to message me if you wanna chat about mini's. I've only had mine 2 weeks, but I have big plans for it.
