Looks very nice mate. I have been thinking about painting mine black down to its waist.

[Samini86]

It looks awesome mate needs to be lower though!

I think it looks good but to be honest, Im not a fan of just copying someone elses design.
I much prefer a car where someone has put the time and effort to come up with a unique design themselves. I understand that "most" paint schemes have been done by now but this is a pretty blatant rip off of the vaux powered mini, even down to the blue stripe separating the black and white.

i know its a copy, but i liked the way that mini looked and i said when i get a mini i want it to look like that! I admit i copied it and i tell people that and along with i didnt do the work i simply bought the bits.

Which is fair enough, but you asked what people thought, and I thought it was a shame you didnt come up with something unique and instead decided to copy someone elses unique custom scheme.
You also didnt state initially that it was copy of someone elses mini, which again is no big deal, its just it would have been nice if you had said straight away that you got the idea from someone else.

..... never said it wasnt his choice did i? and why would I say it wasnt? Bit confused....?

Very nice, personally i'd change the rear lens to either all red or the clear ones

[tom crits]

Ha Ha. I thought it was my friends for a minute. I see the vaux mini everyday. Its a sweet colour choice.
Dont fret too much about copying as the blue pinstripe will be green pretty soon along with the wheels.

Very nice mini i spent a while following you on the splash dash! my ten year old son loved it, the paint scheme makes it look really low and wide.

[minilee94]

[hazpalmer14]
