Now THAT is how to use a Countryman! Mine looked the same till this past weekend thanks to the snow we had. I think we should start a thread of pictures of Countryman in use (DIRTY). You see all kinds of pictures with them all looking pretty, but when I was trying to decide on a color, I wanted to see what they looked like in use....at least the way I use it. Thanks for posting!

 

I'll post a before and after tomorrow or Sunday. Now that it'll be close to 60 (or above) this weekend, it's the perfect opportunity for lots of TLMC!

 

Fitted Red mirror caps and break ducts ,also new JCW side scuttles

 

Got the boot settled with the spare, adapter and inflator.

 

Custom mounted my snowboard rack to the OEM bars

 

Ordered chrome side scuttles with Black Jack inserts.

 

Installed the OEM front mudflaps, pretty easy. I'll do the rears when the wheels are off for the sway bar.

 

Ha ha...those are my thoughts exactly! I "tried" to do it without taking off the wheels, but didnt get very far. Sway bar and short shifter come next week, so not too far into the future.

 

Yeah, fronts only work because you can turn the wheels and make room. If you can do that in the rear, well mud flaps would be way down on your list of concerns!

 

Washed and applied a coat of wax , before the rain started . Rains most days in sunny Scotland

 

I had my CM windows tinted with ceramic tint. 35% front and 20% rear. Photos:

 

Looks great on your car!

 

Nice,

Matching golf cart in red / white.

 

Got my new summer wheels today. Unfortunately all I could do was stick them in the rack due to the arctic conditions outside.

 

Those rims look great. What size and brand are those?. Is the center Matt grey?. Looks great

 

Yesterday I brought my Cosmic Blue home from the dealer. I want to live in it . Morning coffee run some how gained an extra 10 miles this morning even.

 

Thanks. They are American Racing NOVA 18x9 with a 245/40 tire. The lip is machined and the center is matte grey. Hopefully it will warm up enough this weekend to stick one on to see how they look. I got them cheap enough to take a chance on the 9" width. I've seen people in here with 9's on the back, and ECS sells countryman wheels that are 9 so i'm not anticipating a big issue.

 

Got my front headlight rings color matched to True Blue:

 

Decided to go ahead and throw one of the wheels on today to see what they look like.

 

Like the color matched rings....look great on your color

 

They will look awesome on

 

Finally replaced the factory runflats with conventional tires. Definitely quieter (though new tires are generally quieter than worn ones), and a bit smoother ride. We'll see how they do over time. Ended up with the Continental ExtremeContact DWS. Didn't even get hassled about going to non-runflats like some others have posted about.

 

I went with the DWS on mine a few weeks ago. Drove a couple hundred miles in the rain this weekend and they were great.

 

Finally got the rear mudflaps on...needed to borrow some equipment from a coworker (jack, stands, torque wrench). The amount of hardware included with the rear set is crazy; thanks to other people on NAM for helpful write ups and tips.

 

Great,

Post up some pics when you can. Its easier to do it on the rear with the wheel dismounted for the hardware. Fronts you can turn the wheel to the side.

This is a good thread for it.
