Newly painted driving light cover...a little fold in the paint there :(

Headshot of driving lights newly installed.

Newly tinted windows!

Shot in his daily parking space at work.

 

Nice pics...love the tint! That's one mod I have not done (yet ). I might have to pick your brain and get your assessment of the experience of having it done.

 

Like the look!
The pic in the ramp makes Willie look like he's sparkling silver.

 

^^ Yeah I thought the same thing too about the Sparkling Silver, I was like hmmm thats odd..Sunlight & Tungsten lamps make for odd colors..

I have had very good luck with the tinting place I use Gary, I love having the tint and havent' (knock on wood) had any legal issues with the tint either..I think its because its only 35% in the front and you can cleanly see through that with ease.

 

Just one thing to say here.....Suh Wheat!

 

WOW What do you guys think?

 

Those brakes are sick! You need to come back and motor with us sometime so you can show them off in the flesh.

BTW, how are you like'n that JCW CF wing?

 

yea they're sick alright
Thinking about the Coralville thing."Willis Auto Campus "

 

Nice brakes JPMM! I like your tires even better since I'm in the market for new ones. What did you pay, where did you get them and who installed them?

 

Unfortunately you can't buy these, with the yellow letters . So I have used yellow tire marker for the letter effect. They are just normal Dunlops.

 

NICE

 

So I just get finished installing some Cabrio front strut cross braces on SHADOWFAX:



...then I see that -- just yesterday -- they're being advertised as the #1 "wallet-friendly" mod for the R50/R53 on MotoringFile.

Thought it'd be a somewhat unique mod. Now, not so much...

 

I've posted these elsewhere, but thought I would share them with my new EIM peeps . Just put on these stripes today!

 

Schweet! I like the look.

Thanks for sharing with us!

 

Nice job

 

Thanks folks!

I've got more asthetic mods coming in the next week to prepare Mickey for the hobby car show at my work next week! I'll post pics when I'm done.

 

Me likey!

 

Got my VIP engine stabilizer installed this evening...just in time for the car show on Sunday.



Gad, it never ends...

 

installing my 19mm rear sway bar tonight

 

Nice. You're going to love it. Probably the best single mod you can make to a MINI.

 

Only thing I can say where you used to dive into a corner now your back end will slide out...

 

its awesome... also i re mounted my skid plate and rotated the tires

 

I just orderd hawk hps rear pads and sp performance diamond sloted rotors to match what i have on the front. They should be here late this week and get them installed before heading down to stl.

 

Brakes were done a few weeks ago! Now onto the next mod!!
Exhaust is next to go. Anyone around have an IE I could hear in person? This is more then likly the exhaust I am going to go with for price/performance reasons.

 

Here's a video I made of mine.
