3rd Gen F56 Cooper S Most liked posts in thread: Gold accents?

I don't fit the regular mold. I'm so old that any time I see a car trimmed in gold my first thought is pimp-mobile.

 

IMHO, these would be the best visual mods for this colored car. They blend in perfectly with the car's color and actually give it some pizzazz.

What about a goldtone viper stripe, too?

 

Wasn't gold trim a 90's thing once Honda and Toyota's. I thought it looked awful then as it would now.

The only car that ever looked good with gold on it was the Bandit Trans AM.

 

When I see gold trim....
I start to look for the gold crown air freshener on the dash, the matching spinner 20' rims, all on a pimped out Toyota Avalon....
On the other hand....
If it was an fulley blacked out car with that gold....might look OK, even good!!

 

I agree. The gold color helps it pop a little, and that's a good thing. Like wmwny, I think you need to add some type of stripe down the bonnet. A set of driving lights would add some useful light while breaking up the large grille opening and maybe de-emphasing the big horizontal black bar running across the grille.

 

I would go with some sort of black hood stripe, and some classy gold wheel with a polished lip...
