I'm about to order (waiting for final proof) a custom sunroof graphic from Aesthetic Creations for our 04 Mini and was wondering if anyone had suggestions/recommendations for installation. Thanks!

 

several good how tos on various forums I suggest reading them thourghly and an older mag (MC2 early issue or late GO MINI GO has a good hot to as well)

 

It is not all that hard. I just make it look like magic. I have done mine a few times and I did Dustin's too. Dustin made a comment about me knowing what I was doing... and he was impressed. To myself I was thinking...now I really have to do a good job.

What is the design?

 

Hey Big Sky, be sure and talk with Cooper Gear to get and or install your roof. For some reason I cant get the pic into this posting. So much to learn about this stuff

 

My son won the USA Wrestling Folkstyle National Championships in March and just won Freestyle and Greco at the Northern Plains Regional Championships. He's got a great shot at winning USA Wrestling's National Triple Crown Award for winning all three styles. This is a huge accomplishment if he can pull it off, there are a lot of amazing wrestlers who have never won the Triple Crown. So the design is a copy of the logo where he trains, The Overtime School of Wrestling in Naperville. It's going to be a surprise and we hope motivational.

(I thought I could copy the image from my email but I'm having tech. difficulties, sorry)

 

I know exactly how you feel!

 

I put the image up on a site (like flickr), and then hit the insert image button and paste in the url address..

 

Here is my suggestion:

Come to MITM2 MINIs in the Mountains and have Mike install it personally. Heck, come see your MINI friends here. Have a good time.

Solves the problem now, doesn't it.

JPS

 

Sounds like a great time and I'll see what I can do, thanks for the invite!

However, I have to get it on prior to that.

 

Here is the image from BigSky and a link to the Overtime School of Wrestling. Very cool graphic!

Best of luck to your son!!

 

Ernesto...Thanks

That's a great accomplishment! you should be proud So does your son get to drive the MINI as well???

Nice roof graphic. Should look sharp once its installed

 

He'd love to and can hardly wait ...but it'll be a few years as he'll be entering 5th grade in the fall.

At the rate he's growing it may be a tight fit he's already 5'7" and about 128 lbs.

 

DOH!! only in the 5th grade?? AND 5'7"!! I know he can reach the pedals already (I'm 5'6" ish ) so finding a country road might be in order

That would be really cool if you could go to MitM and meet Jonathan and his crew from MINI5280... great guy shameless plug for a nice guy!

 

Shhhh! My wife might read this... ...but you know what he'd say

 

I was pretty much that tall in 5th grade, but I was like 150 lbs. I was surfing alot back then in Solana Beach, CA

 

How tall are you now?

 

Tall enough what's up Jay

 

We just got back from Green Bay and USA Wrestling's Kids Freestyle and Greco-Roman National Championships. It was an exciting four days as my "little guy" dominated his competition winning both styles. In doing so he earned USA Wrestling's prestigious National Triple Crown Award by winning National Championships in all three styles (Folkstyle, Freestyle and Greco-Roman)

He has been fortunate to have had the opportunity to train with Sean Bormet (USA Wrestling's Freestyle Coach of the year) and his outstanding staff at the Overtime School of Wrestling in Naperville IL., I just can't say enough about those guys...they're not just great coaches, their great men and role models.

Thanks for all the kind wishes and support, it was truly valued!

 

That's great news BigSky Congrats to your son. You should be proud. Thanks for sharing!

 

BigSky,

Congrats to your son, that is a great accomplishment. I wrestled in jr, high and high school, but am not familiar with the "folkstyle" version. What is that exactly?
