New Mini Member in Long Beach, CA
Delivered about 3 weeks ago, and fully enjoying it.
Basics:
2006 MINI Cooper S
Pure Silver. Black roof & mirrors
Black Leatherette with black interior. Surface silver.
Premium combo (sunroof, automatic A.C., on-board computer, etc.)
Limited Slip Differential
Dynamic Stability Control
Center Armrest (silver)
Rear Fog Lamps
Front Fog Lamps
Xenon Headlights
Cockpit Chrono Package
Accessories:
“S” Rubber Floor Mats (front & boot)
“S” Valve Stem caps
Map Light
Outdoor Cover with Spoiler
Modifications:
Custom Plates: NV MINI
H.P. Limo Tent (all-round)
18-inch silver Konig “Blatant” rims
Future Modifications (top 5 in sequence):
1. Desperately wanting to paint the black plastic trim to match the body color (pure silver). Also, strongly considering Aero side skirts, but that depends on the initial price of having the trim painted. Anyone who has had this done, give me the cost (including labor). Thanks.
2. Subwoofer and amp’. Undecided on brand(s), but would like a trunk setup like bonz’s sub’ and amp’ in his MINI.
3. Lowering the vehicle, but what a mind boggling subject this has become. I’ve read so many threads on NAM concerning coil-overs and springs. Advantage that. Disadvantage that. Even if you’re leaning towards coil-overs -- that opens up a whole new realm!
4. PROMINI Custom Taillights.
5. Butterfly doors, but this mod’ will be determined on price (haven’t done my research about the butterfly doors on a MINI, yet). If the procedure is over $1,500 then it gets crossed off my list.

Better expect a ticket with the limo tint.

When I got my tint done I was told any tint on the front side windows is illegal, so it was a no decision.
P.S. Don’t you just get a fix-it ticket?
