Engraved Stubby

My wife got me a stubby antennae from Craven Speed with my MINI's name engraved on it for my birthday. She must love me.

Those stubby's ROCK! I have one on my MINI too and her name on it just you-ifies her more.

And yes, your wife loves you....or perhaps she has no confidence that you can find your MINI in a parking lot unless it has an engraved antenna.

I think you nailed it. I can be absent minded sometimes.

The you-ification is in full swing now. Yahoo for birthdays!

I picked up a "Rule the Bends - Bend the Rules" oval sticker that is complimented by a Chinese Dragon oval sticker (it matches my tattoo) on the back window. I ordered some silver MINI Wings valve caps, hopefully they'll be here soon. I also have the warning label covers coming from Aesthetic Creations. And, I get my glove box organizer tomorrow.

I also you-ified my back with a sexy DaMINI shirt from Happy Swag.

Thanks! Most people think I'm silly, but hey, I love my car. Even if it is cute!

I'm still working on a name for mine. It's a boy, I know that for certain. But I can't come up with a name. I am always bad about sticking to a name, even with pets. Just haven't found one that I love you know? But I love the antenna idea (and your other you-ifications you're putting in!)

I struggled with the name at first. Once it came to me, I knew it was right, though. Norton's named after the norton grape that produces my favorite wine from this area. It's also from old-english and old-german origin, so I thought that worked well for a MINI produced by BMW.

Best wishes for naming yours!
