£60 is an absolute bargain! my Cherry needs new wheels as only 2 out of the 5 (including spare) actually match! haha. I didn't realise when I bought the car.
keep up the good work mate. joe

Car looks seriously good! and thats a huge compliment coming from me! ( I usually hate that Era/style of mini; 25/Ritz) I think bumper over-riders, a chrome grille and clear lenses would suit this perfectly. White wheels also look god-darn epic, shame they'll only be clean for the 15 seconds after you wash them ha! Pickup some poorboys wheels sealant, its basically wax for your wheels means you can wash them easier/quicker.

Got to say I prefer the original wheels, they sort of remind me of the gti pirelli wheels. I reckon these polished up instead of painted would look epic, minilites just dont do it for me anymore.

Looking Great :thumbsup:
