Do anyone have any pictures of the old blue and yellow Mk1 Cooper that Bill Richards did with a nose for room for the 8-port stuff? It was a cover car in MiniWorld years ago.

pffft just run without a bonnet! think of the cooling advantages.
no mater what way you do it a bit extra covering the filters is always gonna look shite.....

quick edit:
what about popping on one of them big rally lamp pods to hide it?
just make it slightly bigger than usual and you could still have lights that work inside aswell as the filter

I think its got filters on though rather than short ram pipes, so i dont think it will fit under a KAD bonnet.
