New in Silver Spring

Hi there, I am a new 2003 MCS owner. I bought it about a month ago and finally I decided to not lurk and acutally post.

My MCS is Pure Silver with same colored roof.

I have been covetting lots of accessories but I've only bought the glove box organizer, the center console thingy and the arm rest from the 2nd group buy is on the way.

I would love to get Shelby stripes on the bonnet but not really sure where to get them "installed".

My neighbor has a blue MCS, with stripes. Do you think it would be weird to knock on his door and ask him a little about his car? Our garage is in the back of the house so I don't think he realizes that we have a MINI as well.

By the way, my MINI's name is Emma.

I sent my check to Ashburn but no one's cashed it yet.....

Can't wait to come to an event. Can I RSVP to an event even though I haven't received anything in the mail yet? I've received 2 emails.

Thanks for all you help/advice in advance.

Accessories will begin to rule your life!

I like Speedesign graphics www.speedesign.com. They did my boot and bonnet stripes and the graphics installations for a few others in DCMM.

Not weird at all, this is how you will make new friends!

Looking forward to meeting Emma. Mine is a 03 Indi Blue MC Isabelle.

Need Help with Bonnet Stripes?

I'd be glad to help you install bonnet (or boot) stripes. I did both sets myself, it's really quite easy!

If you're coming to the Tech Day on Saturday, you can survey my handiwork.
