A lot of people, when visiting a new website, explore the Site Guidlines page (#3) as well as the FAQ section (forth on the list). Knowing how deep the water is before you jump off the cliff is always a good choice.

here are some pics, Nothing special.

i bought a nice used 2002 mini cooper S with about 81K miles from an insurance auction. Its a back yard project im working on with my younger brother.
I was expecting a stock car. To my surprise, this car did come with a few mods, it has a magnaflow exhaust system, an alta 19mm supercharger pulley, has a monster force cold air intake and strut brace. We did all the mechanical work already and right now i have it at the body shop for paint. It wont be ready for about 2 or 3 weeks. Im having the skirts, arches, hood painted and a new JCW front bumper installed. i changed the wheels but i am looking to buy the AC Schnitzer type 1 wheels, not sure yet. i can post some before pictures for now.
