My 2015 Volcanic Orange F56

Hey guys! My name's Bridgitte. I just got my Cooper S in June, and I have been loving it. Recently I have swapped the chrome headlight and tail light trim rings with black, added CARBONMINI carbon fiber emblems and fuel cap, and took off the red vinyl from the S emblems and put in black vinyl. I have the media and premium packages, 17" black cosmo wheels, and black bonnet strips. I'm currently on the hunt for some tuning upgrades, so any input or recommendations are totally welcome! I'm currently looking at the NM Power Module or the Burger Tuning module, but not sure which to go with just yet. Glad to be part of a MINI community!

Looks great. All it needs is window tint.

Thanks!! I almost got the windows tinted when I first got it, but I changed my mind. I think I prefer it without

Definitely my favorite color combo. Can't speak personally, but one of our customer cars had a Burger and that car zips.

Looks great! Where'd you get the black Ss? I'm looking for some in other colors.

Welcome to NAM, Bridgitte! Did you take those photos? Very nice. Great choice with your mods so far as well.

Thanks!! Like I said, any advice on tuning modules would be a big help! So far, most I keep hearing about are NM and Burger.

Thanks! I made them! I work as a graphic designer at an architectural sign company, so we have lots of vinyl and vinyl equipment here.

That's awesome! I dabble in car photography too, mostly taking snaps of mine though. I was also a graphic design major for a short bit before I switched. Looking forward to seeing more pictures once you add onto it in the future. Keep up the great work.

Very nice!!! I got my BFA in Photography, but found I actually much prefer graphic design, so I mainly just stick to doing photos for fun (ie MINI shoots) or cheap favors to friends

I saw a MINI like yours yesterday on the road ... though I'm more of an R56 guy, it definitely turned my head!
