Ahhhh chubv!! Best looking non-S I've ever seen. Those are my favorite wheels, plus I've never seen a PW just a cooper with the JCW kit. Awesome!!!
|
PS- Can you tell me how/what parts you used for the Mazda antenna? I've been wanting to do it but don't know exactly how. Thanks.

Attachment 45896 In europe it is normally mounted f.e. on the Mazda3 MPS. Sould be Mazdaspeed3 in US. Easiest way should be to ask a Mazda dealer if you can try one if it fits on your MINI ;) |
I'll have to check, but I think the antenna base is bigger on my car than it is in the picture you attached. If I end up keeping my car for a while I might just shave the antenna all together.

My first mod was a custom open cone intake. Really Improves the engine note.Now have custom Magnaflow exhaust also (no sound clips yet). 28% tint on front sides, 10% rear Blacked out parts: Joey mod, Headlight Rings, Taillight Rings, Boot Handle, JCW Grill, Side Reflector Tint, Side Turn Signals, Boot Handle, "Cooper-S" Gas Cap |
So many people go for the blacked out look, I kind of want to see more chromed bling, as that's my current attraction. I wonder how the chrome mirror caps look on a PW/B Justa. If I had the budget, I'd go chrome everything. I'm probably compensating for 16 years of low to no chrome cars. :D
|
Well, to each his own...
For me I love "contrast". For my PW, that means black; for other colors... it could mean chrome. :lol: Something interesting I have observed... While "everybody" seems to be going blacked out on NAM... most MINI's I see in person are stock or chromed out. |
Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, I dig the blacked out look and I'm taking notes for my wife's black with black and more black clubman, but I'm feeling a distinct chrome shortage in my life. :lol:
And on reflection, that might be why I want to see more chrome - she has the better blackout subject, so I want to go the entirely opposite direction. It does seem like MINI is putting more stock chrome on the car - I don't think I specifically had any added to mine (base lot model but IIRC the big addons were the sunroof and cold weather package), and I notice a lot more chrome on it compared to earlier models. |
It would seem that the two of us are following the same wants with mods, I just finished my custom MagnaFlow exhaust. any pic of it yet? mine are at the top. and heres my sound check on it.

where did you get the black out boot handle? I've been trying to find it. It's the only thing I have left to black out and I cant seem to find it any where!
