Posting here first and thought you guys might want to see these...
The owner of Rennline borrowed my '06 R53 for two solid months
and I had to drive his '91 Porsche Carrera 4 as my rental.
My R53 was used for all the development work on these new parts and he installed these absolutely trick as ever Porsche RS inspired style door pulls. I have to say, that not only do they work really well, they are the same material as the German Schroth MINI Challenge tow hooks and just are the cats meow. Basically, you just insert your finger or grab the Chili Red RS door handle and pull. They are available in different color material and black bezels but why? Chili Red and silver are da kine. They should be available soon. Also is a skid plate, and full pedal gear.

I'm sure the door panels need to be removed to fit these, but shouldn't be that hard. You can also check the bowden cable too while you're in there as I think a TSB was issued on these getting loose on some R50-R53 models.

Only on back roads. They are too bright for oncoming traffic. But I like the look even when they are off.

It's like Chili Red Heaven in here!
Fellow CROCers who plan to attend MOTD 10: I was sorely disappointed that only two other CRs joined me for a run this year. Maybe I picked a bad day or time so I want input for next year. I think it would be so cool to have a loooooooooooooong line of CRs winding up the Dragon. So, give me some feedback here. . .what day? what time?

G33KGUY is the keeper of the list. I'm sure when he sees you request he'll add you to the club.
