So are you French or just living in France? anyways, i installed the LED side strip just behind the headlights, but it gives it the look that the LED strip is inside the headlamp. then i just jumped onto the parking lights and whenever they are on, so are the LED strips. I just ordered some matching LED bulbs same colour as LED strip, to replace the 'off/yellowish white' parking lights on the bottom above the fog lamps because i hate having Xenon headlights, cool LED strip and then yellow parking lights. it throws off the whole look. i'll get you a pic when they arrive tomorrow and i install them. problem with the Mini was finding a suitable place to put the LED strip. if you want to get the LEDs, let me know and i'll give you the supplier i got them from. way cheaper than in France or Swiss here :) |
I really like the "S" gas cap. Did you do it yourself or pay someone to remove the old justa lid? I'd do it in a heartbeat if I could figure out how to get the justa lid off without damaging the paint on my fender. Any tips for removal?

I asked my dealer to put it on delivery :wink: I thought it's was a little bit too hard to do it myself :grin: it's in French but it might help you :wink: http://miniressource.free.fr/docscmt...ieur&nolien=59 (click on the link "afficher") |
Thanks, that's more info than I've been able to find anywhere else. Now, if I can just decipher the French.......

Quick question for you: How difficult was it to do the Chrome "S" Gas Cap Conversion. I have the parts, but I just need to find the time to do it. Finally, have you thought about doing the JCW Grill? |
Definitely looking good, Thymini!!! I had heard that the S roof spoiler wouldn't work on our MC's. Obviously not the case... I do like the older style without the center brace and I'm hoping to get that soon. :thumbsup:
Once I "de-yolk" my headlights and have my headlight trim rings done in Pepper White (Vinyl Styles in CT) I'll post the before and afters. The bonnet end will be a complete makeover with the JCW grill being a major improvement IMHO... |

Yes, I also think with that nice exterior silver color you should de-yolk your yellow bulbs. Get the BMW dealer chrome bulbs or lightly dust them with chome spray paint (that was my method).
I think the Carbon fiber dash trim would look with the other bits you have done. Or you could do a different style, like I have, the brushed aluminum dash trim. |

I was thinking about getting one of these. My main concern was that it would just look like a sticker on there. Does it look good? Does it feel as though it'll stick? It gets pretty hot here where i live, im worried about maybe the glue that holds it running...
