Are you sure those numbers are right? You did your front two windows darker than the rest? Most people do the front two lighter.

 

Where do I start with this? I have access to a good programmer :-) This is awesome!!

MICAL, you are my hero for figuring out a great aftermarket fix for the 2012 Cooper S rear fog light... I want one on our new mini too!!

 

Thanks... I really don't have a "how to" because it could've went to a "how to screw it up thread". I tapped into front fog light wiring, no errors no ncs-programming, straight away wiring. I'll try my best at the order of things.

Ordered part # 63247255925 (fog light assembly for 2012 R58/Coupe) with NAM discount it was $38. Bought 25ft roll of 16 ga. wire, (8) #51-11-8-222-901 plastic blind rivets (lower valance) & (6) 07-14-9-807-127 plastic blind rivots (fender trim).

I pulled lower valance, cut hole in center. The gap in valance is almost an exact fit for the light assembly (which has 4 hook/tabs on it that latch over upper bumper and lower valance) I made my own connector to the assembly, it's pretty simple 2 hot & 2 grounds. For the fog light I ran wire all the way down drivers side (routing through brake line clamps then along front frame rail) I cut the YELLOW wire on fog light and spliced there. All my connections are soldered & shrink tubed. It's wired to go on with front fogs but could easily be switched to run separate.

Overall it took about 3 hours, but if I had to do it again - cut that in half. If you have any questions PM me. Motor On![/QUOTE]

 

where did you order the part from MICAL? 63247255925 (fog light assembly for 2012 R58/Coupe)

Thanks. Can ya give a quick first impressions review too ?

 

i can do that!

 

Added Matte Black bonnet stripes. I had them custom made in that color and a little bit longer than the stock ones.

 

Very nice!! Great look!

 

Well here's my new plate bracket:

 

New custom license plate ordered from BMV....unfortunately approx 3 week wait

 

Getting clear bra and blackjack graphic applied.

 

What did you end up going with?

 

I was surprised as to what all was taken, but I Wanted an IU plate (being an Indiana University grad) but they only allow 6 characters (spaces included as a character) so I ended up with R60SX on an IU plate

 

Getting fitted for new wheels. Still undecided on tire size yet.

 

Here's a couple pictures that show the matte black color of the stripes better. That picture of them in the garage makes them look gray.

 

Oh, THANK YOU so much. They didn't have them 3 weeks ago. I'm SO glad you posted this. It would have been months before I looked again.
