Just a couple of pictures taken with my iPhone. Stripes and tint were completed just an hour ago. It is overcast today, so I am waiting for a sunny day to take better ones!

Renaming to: MAXIMUS

 

congrats!

 

Congrats, very nice choice, I was also sold on Chili Red but decided to take the plunge on Eclipse Grey.

Happy Motoring!

 

Yeah! Congrats!!

 

I know darthhen will be here eventually... the overcast pictures make me regret my choice a little!

Looks great! Get rid of that giant antenna! Haha.

 

Love the stripes. Thinking about changing my stripes.

 

Very nice! I also love the stripes, very nice looking combo.

 

Mojodiva,

Looks great. I like the stripes. I didn't get stripes with my Clubman. I'm planning to do aftermarket ones. But I haven't fully decided on what yet. My body and roof are laser blue. I'm thinking of getting black with black pin.

Is it legal in Texas to tint the front windows?

EDIT: We have the same rims!! Our Minis can be brothers or sisters!!

 

NavyNUKE, here I AM!!!

But seriously, the BRGII is a great color. The only reason why I did not consider it is because my current truck, Tacoma '99, is a dark green color. So it'll look too similiar.

I never noticed the big antenna before...holy crap! Are they all like that? I need to pay more attention.

 

LMAO- I NEVER noticed the antenna before!!! How would I replace it???

Hey, rim bro!!!
I think the black with black pin would look awesome!!!
My front windows were not tinted, so my guess is NO. hehehe I can't believe I am in Texas and finally get a MINI and it hasnt been sunny for two whole days!!!

The website pics of Eclipse Grey do not do it justice. Seeing it in person made me realize why many people love that color. To me it was very sophisticated looking!


Thanks everyone!

 

M7 and Alta both sell a "stubby" replacement antenna. I'm sure other companies do but those are the only two I've seen around here and they seem to be extremely popular.


Car looks great though!


(I never actually noticed the antenna much before that one picture from the rear)
(Edit: Althugh.. it does make it look kind of like an RC car, which could be fun )

 

Front windows not tinted, ok...from the pictures, it looks tinted.

The weather has been weird here in San Jose, CA as well. It's been raining once a week here for a while, and this is April. It shouldn't be like this.

 

I have the Craven stubby. Best price I found.

I saw a laser blue MINI at a dealership last weekend, I wasn't sure of the color name at the time. It looks a lot like hyper blue, but darker, I love that color. You chose a good color combo for your car, motor on!

 

Actually you can have the front windows tinted in TX. They just can't be too dark. I think the limit is nothing darker than a 30%

Shiney!

 

OOOh, thanks everyone, I will definitely check into the stubby antenna!

I just spent a bunch of money on Prima products to keep Maximus all gussied up. The antenna will have to wait for next month.

I am just loving this MINI... and now my husband wants to buy a used one for himself next year!

 

Excellent all the way around!

 

looks great

Sweet stripes! Awesome color

 

Looking good!
