2017 JCW Clubman Lapis/Chili

 

Oh My, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Nice present, gonna keep the bow?

Drive Hard. Drive Safe. Keep Grinning.

 

Thanks! I am enjoying it. No bow but the bonnet and bumper are wrapped in Suntek.

 

Grey Lounge Leather, JCW red stitched steering wheel, Mini Yours pure burgundy trim, sport automatic, 2-tone black/grey dash trim

 

Lots of good looking cars on here! I should throw some hot water at my car and take a few photos. Maybe even get some next to the other MINI (R60, sister is driving it at the moment).

Hey, camerashy Clubmen & Clubwomen, we need photos of everyone's Clubbies.

 

the first two pictures are from last June when she was only a few days old, and the last 3 are current 35000 km and a new transmission later, other than a muffler delete and the vinyl everything is stock

 

That yellow accent on the blacked out F54 looks good.

 

Very sweet F54!

Are the yellow accents painted or vinyl? How'd you do the tail lights?

Loving those matte black stripes!

 

thanks I actually just removed the stripes last week to do a full front end 3M PPF, debating on switching it all up again maybe doing a full wrap, everything is vinyl, for the tail lights I taped up everything but the part over the chrome and sprayed them with red night shades paint then wet sanded and polished them to match the rest

 

Very cool. Thanks!

 

Is the front black out (headlight trim, grill trim) vinyl or did you find someone selling black trim pieces?

Thanks, car looks great!

 

.

Thanks!! It's all vinyl

 

Thought I'd post a couple more; was out for a drive...



Out for a drive and found an Old Bridge...

 

1st trip with my new clubman to my home at the Carolina coast.

 

Awesome configuration!!

The aftermarket are 18" or 19"?

And.... is this the PRO exhaust? I thought it wasn't available for the Clubman!

 

The aftermarket are 18" Neuspeed RSe12 Light in gunmetal finish, the only JCW spec aftermarket rim that will fit our brakes without any spacers.
The exhaust is the stock JCW exhaust. There flap is on the right hand side pipe. It is closed on start up and opens after abound 30 seconds. From what I've been told, BMW has been doing this on their cars for some time.
I'm still waiting for the Pro to become available. I'll be getting it as soon as it's out.

 

Thank you! I read u a post talking about the flap!

I have just talk with the dealer trying to get more info. about the exhaust Pro... as far as I know.. it just the final part oh the exhaust, do you?

Do you test to remove the intermediate resonator? It's easy, cheap and probably quick win.

 

On the factory JCW exhaust setup, if you haven't seen or heard a F54 JCW in person, when the car is started and the flap is closed, it is louder but once it opens the car at idle becomes quiet. The flap is not opened or closed based on the Eco, Mid or Sport settings. I'm not sure exactly what it's purpose is other than for cold start.

It would be a similar setup to the F56 version, which I'm pretty sure is a CAT back system. This should also include a new muffler.

 

Less than a week old. Sitting in the garage. Liking the Mini, amazing amount of room inside.

 

Come on, camera shy Clubmen and Clubwomen! Let's see some pics.
