Gabe just cutted off the image without the windows sourroundings. It´s the same size and quality as in “my” german forum (the origin) or in http://www.mini2.com – all the same pics…

I do like the front bumper though. With the inclusion of the new mesh grill on the Cooper S, I was thinking that it was close to the look of the aero kit, but this new treatment proves that to be wrong. :)</p> I don’t know about those funky indentations on the corners of the rear bumper… I do like the front bumper though.

My guess is that’s all that photo is, is a Photochop…I could be wrong however.

Not only would someone have to produce new photography of the R56 for the base image but then they’d have to do some serious photoshop work and then deteriorate the quality after it was all done to get what is seen above.
