Excellent! Very nice. I really like a lower body stripe on the roadster. I think it makes it look a little sleaker.

Okay, this thread has been quiet for a week and a half and that is just unacceptable...so here's a brace of CR Roadsters all decked out for a local parade this past Saturday -

Early morning in Coloma, Wisconsin last Thursday -- waiting to meet up with some mates from our club, all headed up to participate in the Keweenaw MINI Rendezvous...



Always love the spots with ethanol free premium fuel.

Beautiful Roadster. Must be just after a wash -- even the rotors match the body color.

Like you, I'm loving the GP2 Rear Diffuser. Was that a dealer installed option?

I'm deeply jealous of those JCW side rocker panels.

Sent from my phone using NAMotoring, which is why I've probably mistyped something.

St_G - Send me a PM with your VIN and I can get you the list if I have not sent it to you before. Those JCW rockers are nice.

Gil-galad - Could not agree with you more the JCW GP 2 diffuser does look nice.

Reposted that pic because its awesome, and the photo is very cool. Most of the time I see it with the JCW exhaust, does look different with the Cooper S exhaust.



Congrats on a very nice R59 combo.

I've been so tempted but I'm guessing it's going to run around $800-1,000 when all is set and done with parts and paint. A little hard to justify, or simply beat myself too much for not having ordered the JCW aero kit when we bought the car . . .

Wasn't there use to be a post nearby for all the parts needed to swap the side skirt rocker panel on a roadster?

2015 Mini Cooper S Roadtser

Ordered July 28th. Built and waiting to be shipped over. Slow down at plant during August, need to fill the ship before it gets sent over.

Went with traditional British Roadster colors. This picture shows a JCW, however I got the S. Can't show red stripes on the S...building JCW was the only way to get a close picture. Ordered some mats from CocoMats.com(their pic attached) and some badges to decide from.

Looking forward to getting it sometime in September.

I know they're available; I just can't justify the cost.
