Got my Mini back from the dealer finally. They used clear RTV around my tail light upper seam to seal it. I will be sanding down the seam and using brush able and paint able seam sealer on it. The dealer also did an inspection on my car. I need to replace the LCA's and ALL of my power steering lines.... Just what I needed. Time to start ordering up some parts... Power Flex bushings, sway bar bushings, inner and outer ball joints with the matching bolts, and all 3 power steering lines. Anything else besides power steering fluid?
Yeah, 30". Our road still isn't plowed. We live in a slightly urban area. I couldn't get the MINI to its inspection appointment today... Luckily I also have a Subaru.
Is that orange R52 your personal car? Need more pictures of it. Looks really nice... what wheels?

Yea, lots of people are at a stand still. Cant believe those snow fall amounts. And those pics. Be careful driving , not just with the MINI, but you have to watch out for other people without proper driving skills.
Wow. Would be really hard to part with any of them, I'm sure that was no fun. Definitely need to take some update photos. Your R52 is a stunner. That JCW R58 is no dud, either!
So, we will wait somewhat patiently for more updated views of these guys. Not just nose shots we hope?

Ok, off the hook for a while. We know it takes time to set up a good picture shoot. That R52 interior is really well done. Over the top great.
Works Coupe is excellent... really like the head/fog LED DRL lights. Do both of the lights come on as DRLs or do you have them on separate switches?
Any word how the Blue/White R56 is doing with new owner?
R52 - Thanks, I did the checkeredboard pattern myself , all the other items are JCW add ons.
R58 - Nope both, , there is an extra wire for the DRL light on the HL which you tap into the factory positions lights, those also have the Ziza position leds to match. Great combo.
Finally, I had my mini installed the intake system to make the engine bay looks nice and clean. The sound sounds great and it makes me exciting when I'm driving.
