Requisite New Guy Intro

Hello everyone! Glad to be here. I'm Kenny from Northeast TN.

Picked up a '14 Countryman All4 earlier this summer and am starting to get the itch to tinker.

I'm a specialty manufacturing design consultant by day and a professional couch potato by night.

Looking forward to being a part of things here!

Sounds like an interesting combination. I would expect great modifications from the first and completely stock from the latter.

Post some pictures and your plans for your new MINI.

Here it is!

Still torn between going the lifted way or the lowered way. I live in East TN about an hour from the Dragon (or BRP) but I also like to drive around the gravel roads around here.

I think my first course of action will be to wrap the roof (chili) and then add the mirror covers and brake ducts. Killing the chrome comes after that.

I was interested in the Quicksilver exhaust (it sounds nice), but after seeing some threads here about just buying racing mufflers and having a shop fab them I think I will get more satisfaction that way.

Run flats have to go for sure.
