Your car looks great! I'm with you on the blue. I saw that color CM in a mall in NJ and told my wife "that's the first blue car I've ever seen that I like". I like your wheels a lot better than the tunnels ... good choice IMO. Well done Ms. Ann ... and without a hint of arrogance.

@Ann -- I think Sooner is absolutely right about your wheel choice. With the chrome package, the silver wheels look "right". And, even though I am a new fan of the tunnel spokes, I think Barnaby would look less...er..."harmonious" with the tunnels.

Looks great. Thats the way the exhaust should have looked from the factory.

VIP sells aftermarket bits and bobs for the MINI. They are in AZ.
http://www.vipcustomparts.com/

I ordered the whole package for my CM, but the exhaust was crushed durring shipping, so Van has sent a new one while he fights it out with the courier.

Not sure but I think JUSTINFRO's picture may just be tips he had put on the factory exhaust, looks great.

Pure Red

Red calipers would look pretty good on that vehicle.

Ironically, I have the red caliper covers but I'm missing the car.

Here are some better shots of the CM - still with iPhone... The background is not fatastic, but it's better that the pathetic shot I took at the dealer the other day.

In 36 hours I've done:
- Tint
- Clear bulbs
- Red 4's
- 4 inch exhaust tips

I just realized I have yet to put on my recycled shorty antenna...

So far so good with the car. 100 miles and no vibrations, no noises, no hesitation so life is good. The first commute from Reno to Bay Area will be later today and I'm looking forward to it.

All black

I picked up an all black CMS two days before Christmas. Here's a photo shot the next day when the skies were looking ominous (with a bit of over-processing). I would have liked blacked out headlights but got a deal I couldn't pass up on one in inventory. Just needs tint. Great gift to me..
