Ya think? They were the only original bits on the car, kinda liked the way it showed it still as a cooper!

Where would one find a black grille these days??

Thats a lovely lookin mini :) The slight difference in colour makes a hugh difference in looks...sweet.
Whatever about the cooper decals and pin stripe, personally i wouldn't bother with the bonnet stripes, looks perfect as it is.
