Still Hard At Work

Mock up of the Rims so owner could see what they would look like

 

Those rims are sexy. I wish I could afford them for my mini. :(

 

MINIxB...check this on eBay

 

Rhino lining the engine bay looks amazing. These colours are great!

 

it's really nice with the Rhino in the bay...it almost has a velvet look to it....

 

They're 12's not tens. But if they were tens i'd jump all over it in a heartbeat.

 

They're the same wheels I have on my car, even to the size. This one is the 1st of my 6 Minis not running 10s, and I have to say that even though they took some getting used to, the 12s aren't that bad. My biggest issue was finding tires for them, though I now have a better source.

 

i think there is better handling with 12" than 13"......but nothing beats the 10"s in my opinion......

 

I would have preferred the 10s, but the car came with 12s and I can't justify buying new wheels when there's nothing wrong with these ones, and I'm not sure the 10s would go over the 8.4" front disk brakes.

 

They won't. You'd need to get Cooper S calipers or aftermarket and cut the rotors down

 

Exactly. And my wife is bugging me about spending $80 for new carpet. I'll stick with the current 12 inchers.

 

lol.......i know how that is

 

i second that!!

 

LOL. That's why I'm single.

 

I havn't posted updates of this car in a while so here they are.......sorry for the delay, they were just sitting in my photobucket......lol

 

Love the paint! One of these days I'm going to see one of your cars in person. I can't wait!

 

here are some more updated pics......sorry i've been slacking ...lol

 

Those rally lights are sweet!

 

Lookin good!! I like those flares.

 

black headliner was installed sunday, this week front brakes are getting done, then rear, the motor !!!.......almost through this one

 

Black headliner?? Got any pics?

 

i'll get some pics up of it in a few days........you can actully buy them black now........rather than painting them.....you can kinda see it in the last pic (look to the very top left of the last pic)

 

Hey Norm, that color in first picture would be Pageant Blue ?- one of my favorite colors.
Also, how tall are you mate ? Had a guy ask me if a 6'4" man could get in a Mini- told him I am 6' 1" with no problems and sent him to your site with the photos of you standing next to one.
All the best....

 

Looks great Norm!!
