Uh, yeah.



Blimey's back! And back together!

Loving the aero bumper and grilles... I woulda found a non-stationary object to hit a long time ago if I'd known how much I'd like it...

 

Well... we've been waiting for you !!

Now where's the pics ??? You had all friggin day.

And stationary object, you say ? Ohhhh... ohhhhhhhhhh... NON stationary. Good thing. I was about to turn you into the NC Dept of Insurance, Fraud Investigation Unit.

 

OK, FINE. It was dark when I finished swapping out the grilles and reinstalling the lights... but here's a teaser.

 

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet !


I really like those grilles, too.

My next MINI is definitely coming with the Aero bumper.

 

Another view:


Thanks!

The thing you can't see is my soon-to-be-famous "Shadow Jack" lower grille... it's painted with VERY dark red and blue metallic paint... "white" parts of UJ are left black - it's only visible in direct sunlight, and then it's VERY subtle... you won't notice it unless you're looking for it... much different than my old grille... meaner...

 

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice !!! So nice, I might have to find a... ummm... non-stationary object to hit.

And hey... sweep up those leaves in the corner.

 

Only problem is, now I'm getting the urge to black out ALL the chrome... just to see what it would look like... never thought it would look good on Cool Blue... but now with the aero grilles I'm not so sure... might go mean and nasty...

Oh yeah... here's my new clean radiator... and my current under-bonnet look... got a little re-painting to do to make all the red stuff match...

 

 

Looks GREAT Blimey

I want to paint Poco's grill, either black, or BRG, kind of leaning towards BRG.

looks good! but that looks my car about 4yrs ago.

 

Yah.... I'm just behind the times..... wish I could be a trendsetter like the kenchan.

 

yah, you still have much to learn, blimey.


hey, my FitS's going to be one year old tomorrow.



been tickling the ivory all week this week. no motoring my MCS.

 

Blimey, you are one great looking MINI. Glad you're back with your owner. Could you have him snap a pic of your GPS installation? Frodo needs more than a suction cup on the windshield.
Thanks

 

Looks great Paul - nice work!

 

It's 50 degrees out here in SoCal and I'm bout to go give Geoffrey a bath. BRRRRRRR!!

 

50 degrees ?? If it were 50 here, i'd take some time off from work and wash all of the MINIs.

 

Will do - stay tuned - tonight or tomorrow

 

LA folks are wimps.

 

 

Anything below 70 degrees is considered cold and that's when the coats and scarves start to come out.

 

hahaha, but i know the feeling. when i moved back to IL from
living in LA for 3yrs, the first winter was SO FRIKKKKKKEN COLD!!!

but now (8yrs later) im like wat, 20F? im outside getting the mail
in my t-shirt.
