House of Kolor Kandy Pagan Gold R50 w/ Ice Gold roof

Hi guys, Im a little new to this forum. My wife purchased our 05 Solid Gold R50 about a year ago. She has decided to move on to a MBZ SLK. Since the payments on the R50 is so low and I wanted another toy to play with. Decided to keep it and start modding.

I've been modding since the late 80s, have had over 80 cars since then. Most of them modded, mag cover cars, mag featured, show winners etc. Ive done everything from EVO 8s to MBZ to VW to Lexus. My last few projects have included a Lambo Orion Yellow 08 VW R32 that took 3 1sts at shows, an e90 3 series that was all carboned out, an 08 Scion xB that was featured in Scion commercials etc.

2005 MC solid gold, auto, two tone black and gold interior, factory nav, heated seats

I started on the Mini about a month ago. This is what I have so far.
17" Tenzo Cuzco (black with polished lip)
205/45 Michelin Pilot Exalto tires
H&R Sport springs
Remus dual out cat-back exhaust
Racing Dynamics Fr & Rr CF strut tower bars
H&R rear sway bar
Craven Speed strut tower reinforcer
HID 6K headlights
LED turn signals, parking lights, reverse, & interior
HID 6K Foglights
JCW CF interior kit
CF rear view mirror cover
Euro armrest, Billet pedals, Knee pad, sunroof shade
Powerflex bushings, engine mounts, etc
MB Quart 5.25 separates and 4" co-axial
JL 10W3 sub & Arc Audio 5ch amp
Roadster Sound 10" sub box

I just got confirmation from a body shop sponsor to have the car painted House of Kolor Kandy pagan gold and the roof, grill, wheels, mirrors painted HOK Ice Gold which is basically a pearl black base with gold flakes.

I will post pics in about 3 weeks once everything is done.
