Hello all,
I'm Joe and O'm new to living the mini life. I'm not sure what to say about myself here...
I've been lurking around the site for a few days. I live in Buffalo, NY. I'm a detailer, I like cars, I like stance(just a little low and little camber) nothing crazy.
I'm a PC Gamer and computer nerd.

I'm excited to be apart of the community and hopefully meet some WesternNY mini owners.

and this is my R56 hatch.
just over 60k on it.
Premium and Cold Weather packages
previous owner had the front bumper coated with paint protection film.

interior is 9/10 flawless with no wear and no scratches or scuffs
exterior is 9/10 with only minor rock chips.

 

Welcome to NAM, Joe! Love the matching rear view mirror cover. Since you're into stance, do you plan to lower the MINI as your first mod?

 

Thank you! those mirrors get compliments everywhere I go.
as much as i want to lower it immediately, where I live is riddled with potholes and its just not ideal for lowered cars. I'm going to be looking into getting snow tires and then summer rims and tires first.

I also want to look into getting the xenon headlamps and grill mounted foglamps.

 

You're very welcome! The grille mounted lights are a very popular mod. You'd want 63120417885 - DRL retrofit kit in black
63210420292 - DRL retrofit kit in chrome. We have the black ones on our R56, which look pretty good, but chrome might look good on yours because of your chrome grille. For these kits you will need the grille section, mounts, and interior button knee bolster to your color interior. I can help you with all that when you go to purchase them. Just let me know. We also have the Xenon headlights here and the control units here. When you start these projects don't hesitate to ask for help. There are a lot of very helpful individuals on this forum to assist you with your projects. Good luck and enjoy your new MINI!

 

Very cool. Thank you!
