Beautiful!
I think you have very nice parents too.
Don't tell my kids, OK?

Sharp looking MINI! BRG with a white roof was on my short list.

Very Nice
You need to hug your mom & pop everyday and say thanks for sure !
Be safe driving out there - everything else on the road is larger than a cooper but a smart car ! Motor On!

Thanks alot for the feedback guys and will definitely take care of it! BTW I know this might be the wrong thread to ask this but I am pretty sure you guys can help if you dont mind. Hehehe. First of all how do you guys clean the black plastic trims on the cooper? and what kind of tape do you guys use to cover the plastic trims when polishing and waxing? (I ask this because obviously you cant get wax on plastic trims)
