I installed a NM Eng. Engine Torque Arm Insert, Craven strut tower defenders, and black boot handle (by Lyle at Vinyl Styles). I made an attempt to slap on a set of Laminex tints on my tail lights but for various reasons it didn't work well so I took it to a professional tinter. (pics soon). I also covered the idiotic warnings on my visors with "S" decals and put the "Actual Size" sticker from Aesthetic Creations on my back window. Next up... belt line.

I gave a deposit to Lyle to black out my emblems, beltline and scuttles and ordered domed door handles from Aesthetic Creations for the new MINI I'll be getting next month.
Dude, that looks fantastic! i love it. i cannot wait to start blacking out my beltlines, handles and gas cap! too bad in NJ they dont mess around and WILL get pulled over for tinted tailights....i think this is one of the few tinted tailights ive seen and actually like! (usually I dont care for it)

After I cover the beltline (tape from Lyle sitting on kitchen counter), door handles from AC are my next (and last...I think) aesthetic mod. If you could, shoot me a PM and let me know how they turn out, quality, fit, etc.
Chased Truck for miles but he would not stop. I was on the phone with my insurance co. during the chase. Got the plate # now it's the Hurry up and wait thing.
This past week I blacked out the beltline, swapped in black jack side scuttles with led lights from outmotoring, put a cooper s fuel filler assembly with carbon fiber cap on it and swapped stock headlights for blacked out R8 style led projector lights. Over the past couple months I put on a JCW aero kit and cooper s bonnet with cf scoop. Will post pics soon.
You know, I was really happy with my dark blue & orange interior with my dark blue steering wheel................until I saw your wheel......I want it. So now I either have to change my whole interior or buy a new MINI
