Nice. I plan to get the JCW Pro mirror covers myself. Just waiting for the price to drop or find a used pair. I had the chili red covers on my Lightening Blue R56 and they looked good with the red calipers and hashmarks.

I was after these covers for a long time and finally did it. Quite pleased with them...

I like them spices up the colours

They look braw (Scottish for really nice). Grey and red works well.

 

[Saurabhdutt]

Didn't tell my other half about it. She just noticed and surprisingly she loves it...

Those look very nice! Enjoy the change...small changes can make you feel you're driving a new car don't they?

I'm thinking about adding a little more spice to my completely black car. Still not sure choosing between red wing mirrors or keep it a little more neutral with the "black jack" mirror caps.

Would really love the real carbon ones but they are so **** expensive

I saw an all black MCSD and it had red wings and it looked great.

Saw pepper white mini one with mismatched yellow and pink mirror caps today. It actually looked very cute (as did the driver). Would look pretty weird on a cooper s or a jcw though.

Love it!!! Brightens it up a little #girlyopinion

Cheers Donna...

I think it looks odd. As it doesn't match the rest of the vehicle at all.

For your color scheme I would recommend blackjack or Chrome or carbon fibre if you don't like black. Red just draws too much attention on your style of vehicle - like a red nose.

Just wo cents... But this is honest opinion and I know those caps could easily be resold and it is great if YOU like it, as that is what matters most.

I really appreciate your honest opinion. I was aware that this colour combination wouldn't be every ones cup of tea, even though I am quite surprised with so many positive comments.

I went for the red wings to make the car stand out a bit as its always dull here in England and all grey and black can make the car look a tad bit bland.

TOTALLY IN LOVE WITH THE RED-paint the callipers too! I think it lifts the whole car! As above, it's what you like however that matters most and we are all different thank heavens!

 

[Saurabhdutt]

Cheers @jeremybingham....

 

[Dimitri]

looks great!! Somehow I thought it would be something more... radical asking for our opinion and all... Its always better taking the other half by surprise. There's nothing they can do about it. I do the same...

I'll be nice to see some pics once you are done with the mod.

Not to throw a damp towel on the room, but I really can't stand posts like this.

It's a personal mod. It shouldn't matter what everyone else thinks. The only thing you should be concerned with is that you like it. If you are worried about the opinions of others, then you will never get to express your own personal style./rant

With that being said, it looks neat. I'm assuming this is your style, so if it is, it suits you well.
