Can't wait to see. I wanted to do a Milltek on mine but something with the R56 version is messing up something with the mass air flow sensor and causing the Check Engine Light to come on. I think I'm gonna check out the Alta Cat-Back cause it comes in stealth black.

D3m0N, I've been wondering how your weekend mods have been coming along. Hope all is going well. You should post some pics of your progress in this EIM thread:

My bumper and bumper skin are off right now as I'm in the middle of my light bar install. All is okay thus far (we'll see what happens when I get to the wiring). My better half is on travel this week, so I can just leave the MINI up on the jack stands while I drive her car around...

Well, the forecast for the weekend is for some snow (again ) so you should be able to hibernate in the garage and accomplish much. Hope the parts arrive soonest.
