Tiebito, I notice that your front JCW badge is on the upper grill, not the lower. First time I've seen it like that and I kind of like it. I assume the shop that installed the aero kit did it at your request. How many other JCW's out there have moved the badge up to the upper grill?

 

a few new ones

Beautiful JCW czech. Love that black wheel contrast along with the white exterior. You take really nice photos.

Love the car absoluteczech. Love its simplicity and classy elegance. The red badge is a nice touch.

 

thanks guys. i really wanted a red jcw, but couldnt make a deal with the dealer. pepper white was my 2nd choice. i also have never been a fan of all black wheels, but on the mini it's a must imo, it flows well with the roof, mirrors and wheel arches.

now i just need to get the headlight washers wrapped or painted!

 

I love the looks.. this calls for a photoshoot with the twin brother....

 

For wrapping, go to extreme works in cerritos. They just did mine last week and it matches with the factory blackline rings I got from sewell mini

 

Sounds like a plan! I'm waiting to get the washers done and a few more minor things finished. I was planning on taking some shots in downtown LA around the 6th st bridge and LA riverbed. It's one of my favorite locations

Thanks ill give them a call. I got mine from Sewell too

 

It's because of this year model. The badge on the lower front grille has been in place since 2012 only. HEre's a good article from MF on this exact subject.

Purchased 2009 fJCW in July this year. 1st year to come out of the factory. Note no aerokit on the rocker (side panels). My finishing touches were: put an opposing red viper stripe on the roof (no sunroof), John Cooper Signature graphic on front fender. Blacked out belt line, headlight rings and taillight rings, side scuttles.

 

This looks great, very nice touches Where did you get you JC sig. from? You should consider a set of NM springs to get the ride height just right. Keep up the good work.

I got the signiture graphic from minimania.com for about $25 for the pair. They list them as "stripe signatures" I think intended to be put over your existing stripes as though the man himself (rest in peace) had signed the car. I thought putting them on the fenders would give it some identification and set it apart from other MINI's. I agree with you on the lowering springs and think I'll do that next. Thanks

 

Got a new camera, here are 3 new pics:

 

 

Beautiful!
