Looks good!

..nothin' wrong with "Ling Ling" ...a cool/fun name really!

..and, a pepper white clubman w/blackout is exactly what I want to eventually have as our 2nd Mini in the garage!

..the black scoop looks fine too, ..the black side scuttle/fender panel though I think maybe breaks up the flow along the side..imho...

The stripes are definitely cool to look at. Were the ones on Violet different? I don't remember them being flat black.

Oh, and don't chill. That's no fun.

 

The ones on Violet were the same color purple but they were all purple with thick purple pinstripes too. I think this looks much better. The subtlety of the thin purple pinstripe plus the logos make it work. And then the "S"s sneak in there as well.

 

Had our Club (PDX MINI Club) Events Director install the 3rd Brake Light Pulser, thanks Allen!! It will save me from having to yell..."GET OFF MY *SS!! (I hope anyway!!)

 

Very cool! The entire car looks "complete", like it came from the factory that way. And I agree, the emblem looks awesome.

 

Thanks Silhouette!

 

I installed the Powerflex upper engine mount bushings (the 2 large ones). What a difference in shift feel .

 

My buddy "Step" on here and I installed PF bushings on the front control arms Good stuff.

 

I also forgot to mention i took the "S" off the back of mine... "Justa cooper" now

 

Appreciate it. Still wondering about the sides. Nice thing is, if I don't like it, just peel away.

 

Gave my MINI a wash the way the good detailers do it. Pressure washer, foam cannon, Meguiar's Hyper-Wash and a Belgian waffle micro-fiber drying towel. Richard Lin at Show Car Detailing showed our club how to do it correctly. Does it ever work slick. Dirt just flowed out of all the seams and it was fun to boot. 10 more washes and I'll have paid for all the equipment! LOL

 

Personal no touch, or was agitation needed?

 

OMG a MINI crew hit up Couser canyon and I didn't know about it?! I live at the end of Gopher Canyon and run Couser and Rice Canyon at least a couple times a month. Hit me up next time! How did you all find out about it?

 

I never touched the car until it was thoroughly rinsed with the pressure washer and then only with the drying towel. The dense foam of the Hyper-Wash lifts off the dirt and it just flows off. Still have a few petrified bug guts, but they're getting the wet towel treatment right now. Suppose I should clay it, but procrastination's easier, LoL.

 

Join West Coast MINI! We hit all kinds of neat twisties around here at least once a month.

 

wash and Zaino!

 

Shaved some of Grandma's brown lye soap inta a bucket o hot water, gave it a good wash, dried it with a ceder bough and waxed it with good ol' Johnson's paste wax!

How many guys are proud to admit they've got a short one?

 

Couser Canyon is our favorite! Yeah, join us next time!

I don't understand half the nouns you just said...but it sounds GREAT!

 

I covered up the two warning stickers on the visors and peeled the one in the middle off! TADAAAAAAA No more warnings!

 

I smacked her on the boot after driving her hard and said "who's your daddy"

 

I always say my girlfriend drives a lifted Tundra because her ***** is sooo small but I drive a MINI because well...

 

First Seafoam cleaning of the intake. Along with the belching came a CEL for multiple misfires. Hookup of the code scanner to clear her symptoms, she was good to go.
