don't cry..your post made me laugh out loud....love it!

 

Not to change the subject or anything, but I installed this plastic drink tray under the bumper of my MINI yesterday. Must have done something wrong cause once I got it on there weren't room to set a drink anywhere, LOL!

 

Thats because you are using the wrong drink, Those are for shot glasses.

But srsly, Drinking and driving is not cool, don't do it. (just wanted to make sure my joke was not interpreted wrong)

 

CF MCS Fog Light Fillers

Bought this rear bumper to install on my MC along with center exhaust, and it didn't come with the fog lamps or the fillers, so I figured I'd make some fillers out of CF.

 

I took my MINI down to the dealership to talk about a dent (present when I bought it) taken care of... so she'll be good as new on Monday! I also bought myself a MCS hat so now my car and I match.

 

I did my first Seafoam treatment.

 

Wait... your car wears an MCS hat?

 

Funny guy

 

Hey, I thought it was funny... maybe because I imagined the MINI wearing a hat.

 

Thanks for your kind understanding. I did S-shoe my Mel & Collie.

 

Washed and set up my auto lights and locks and checked out the MINI USB drive that came with the car. Didn't even know that I had it I never opened the envelope that it was in.

 

Pioneer makes a line of nice decks that has reddish/orange lighting so it looks factory, but has more options than the stock radios. I have the DEH-P6200BT you should look into it if you're already replacing speakers.


In other news, I got my GoPro HD camera from Amazon yesterday, so I took it out for a spin to check out the different modes and mounting options. So far I really like the suction cup mount on the rear moonroof glass. This allows a nice wide view of me, the interior, and the front and side windows. Good stuff!

I'll try to post some stills or short vids in case anyone is contemplating a GoPro. They are normally $300 but Amazon had it for $229 (now at $235)...get it now while the gettin's good!

 

the hook comes off from the screw part that installs it... so im gonna have to get a deep deep socket to take it off

 

I can't believe how long this thread is now! haha... well let's see, today I finally posted on NAM again for the first time in a while... hello everyone!

 

Got my black babies today.. throwing them on tomorrow should have some pics up later

 

Just droped my car off to be one balled

 

You know, I searched NAM high and low to figure out what this is...but can't find it.

Maybe I should Google 'one ball'. It's not like anything bad could happen, right?

(is it going from a dual to a single exhaust tip, or somehow joining the two muffler pipes...I'm assuming whatever it is it can't be done on a Clubman with the split pipes.)

 

Had a new windshield installed, nice clear glass again. Only issue is they broke one of my A-Pillar covers , they ordered a new one, just have to wait for it to arrive.

 

It's one ball exhaust because the chop the resonator off. Google one ball exhaust. I'm sure you won't find anything to bad I'm sure someone will chime in with a better explanation.

 

This was yesterday...but i made a straight pipe for the Magnaflow....now its badass loud!

 

Gotcha...found a diagram of the MCS exhaust, and get the de-balling. Can't do it on a Clubman as the mufflers are not in series. Just a Y split to two mufflers. Oh well.

 

"one-ball" refers to an R53

 

you can always do a resonator delete... essentially the same thing....

 

Well, she did wear a hat... then I drove to work today and now it's gone :( Stupid highway...!

 

The new wheels and tires showed up today. 16" Konig Zero-In's with 205/50-16 Hankook Ventus V4 ES tires. I'll install them on Saturday probably:
