It actually arrived last week (Wednesday). This past Saturday the Mini Motoring Club of Alaska motored from Anchorage down to, where else, Cooper Landing, Alaska! It gave me the opportunity to put a few hundred break-in miles on it. I am still in honeymoon stage but loving it! Still playing with features. Figuring out style of striping and color combo. About to order winter wheels and tires as winter will be upon us quickly. Have 19" crushers - will go to 17's for winter. May do red brake ducts and have side scuttles wrapped in a (hopefully) tasteful red/anthracite carbon fiber. I have some chrome brake ducts but have not installed yet. I also have have the black line headlight and taillight trim on its way. Eventually want auxiliary gauges installed.

And yes ........ I kept my 2005 Cooper S!

 

Nice! Will look good with the blacked out rings.

 

Thanks EHans
