Hello, I'm Matt and I live in West Central Georgia and have lurked here for a short time but have wanted a Cooper S for quite a while and finally found what i think is one of the best! Below is my 2005 Cooper S. I have ordered Black LED Scuttle lights and Black LED Tail Lights and a JCW Mesh Grille which I find out after i order will be a PITA to install the middle grill. Tell me what you think.

 

greta looking car...

 

Congrats & Welcome! From this angle it looks like someone has taken very good care of your MINI for you...enjoy!

 

Welcome to the forum, nice looking MINI, congrats.

 

Super cool car dude! Your S body (pre'07) is called an R53. If you are a DIY'r, you'll find tons of available aftermarket bits at this link: http://soopercooperinfo.com/lindaminidiy11-09.html You are also fortunate to have great Mini tuner near you: http://www.waymotorworks.com/ Take advantage of their knowhow.

This forum is the best place for opinions and advice, but don't forget to check out your local Mini club too.

 

That's one clever lookin' MINI! Many felicitations on your new purchase, don't forget to wave!

 

could be a brother to my car if you take off the chrome mirror caps!

 

Preciate it guys....Feel like I stole the car to be honest! I drove 5 hours to get it but walked away paying only $8000 with 90000 mi. one owner with all the service records from the local stealership! A little high milage but doesn't bother me!

MCSfanboy - Thanks for that info. I had no idea about WMW being in ATL I'll definately look more into that!

JustinGTP - Your car and the sleekness = AWESOMENESS!!
