Bump.

Any SS drivers do the joey mod to their car? I'm thinking about tackling it this month and want to get a good idea of the final result!

So far I see this but wish I could get a pic from further back


TIA!

 

I haven't, and TBH, I don't really know what it is or involves, so I guess I won't be doing it either (unless I already have and didn't know it!)

 

the joey-mod involved taking apart the headlights and painting the insides so that they appear dark during the day.

thanks for explaining, I didn't know either! Now I do! and it looks nice!

 

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Hmm. Yes, it looks nice, but it sounds rather time-consuming, so I guess I won't be doing it. I think right now I have a nice distribution of sparkling silver, black and chrome/silver.

And hello Gem.

 

If/when the Camden makes it over to the states, maybe you can snag a pair of OEM headlights with black housing? It would certainly cost you, but for someone like me, I'd look into it if the price was reasonable.

 

New to this forum, but please include me in the SS club! Just picked mine up used a month ago and love it!

 

Welcome! And congratulations on picking what I believe to be MINI's most sophisticated color.

 

Here is my baby slightly dirty and with brandnew boot stripes!




Now I'm just waiting for my JCW grille to come in the mail...

 

 

Very nice, very nice. I like it when the stripes go down the boot as well as the bonnet. My sport stripes do just that.

Are you gonna get new wheels? Its amazing how drastically they change the car's appearance (for the better). Either way, nice car; great color choice!

 

Hey jb, nice pic (as always). Is something different, or you just felt like sharing?

Here's Daphne with her new wheels and tats! Thanks to CooperFlags for the graphics!!!

 

Nice pics! What kind of wheels are those? They kinda look like my Tenzos, but in silver, but I don't think they are. And your graphics: they almost look like tattoos!

 

They're actually Brig Maglines. They came off a Scion xB that our friends bought used so we're really not sure where they came from. And yes, they are slightly based on tattoos.

 

Daphne won Ride of the Month for August at MetroplexMINI! Just another reason to love our little car!!

 

T8 - CONGRATS!!!
I had entered Nugget into a British car show in the spring and she won 3rd place. the first place winner was also a sparkling silver also!!!
this color is very classy!

 

Hi MCwill, I haven't been on here in a while. I don't seem to get notices in my email as much anymore.
How are you doing what's new??? send me a PM sometime.

 

Just became a member of the Sparkling Silver Club! Picked up Whipple last week. I'm looking to do something slightly different with the bonnet stripes.

 

I've had mine since June 25th. Love it! I get nothing but complements on the color. It has black cloth interior and black bonnet stripes.

 

Welcome!!!

 

painted my light covers, added JCW grill and a badge holder.

 

I really need to put that grill on my car, was it difficult to put on? How hard was it to re-run the driving lamps?

 

i painted my rims in may and just painted my calipers tuesday with the help from my cousin...for the rims, i used the instructions from toolazyforalogin.thanks..painting my rims and calipers is the only things i have done to my mini so far as you can tell...
