Jet Black Thread Anybody?

I said I'd restart the Jet Black thread, so here it goes.

You don't need to own one to be here.

Comment anyway you like, approve/disapprove(if that's even possible)!

Reasons for going Jet Black would be interesting.

Comments from others admiring your lovely Black MINI.

You get the idea. Keep it simple, or go to great detail. Either way, I'm gonna read 'em all.

JB Minis rule. I sort of like that there aren't too many of them. Makes them somewhat unique among Minis. When its clean and shiny it's just sexy. And it's always clean and shiny. I get a lot of good comments, even when I'm at a red light; folks will roll down their window and make a nice comment. It looks awesome with the Union Jack on the roof.

Put a nice big Brit Flag on the roof and you'll be "Right as Rain"!

I geuss, since I did take the time to restart this thread, I should include a snap of mine as well.

If you were talking about mine; the roof will be painted black eventually. Trying to find black mirror caps ASAP, and i'll be getting rid of those white wheels ASAP as well.

Changing the wheels is easy enough. Mirror caps, sorry, I don't have any. Now, if you want to drop down the page a bit to Newport News, I can do that roof respray for around $200 cash.

DC Metro MINIs should be participating in the VA Beach GWR 500 run on June 8th. Interested?

Oh yeah, wheres my manners? For an additional $50., I'll do your mirrors as well.
