Getting my new Mini in 7.5 hours and I can not sleep!

I'm so excited to pick up my new 2008 Mini Cooper S in the morning! It is British Racing Green Metallic and looks great! I have been looking over the forum all day for custom ideas lol. I look forward to getting to know everyone here. There is a lot of wonderful information provided. I will upload some pics later today when I have a chance!

As a new member he might not know about that section....

Whether you have the wrong section or not, welcome!

The 'Minsomnia' as someone put it lasts for a long time

Congrats on the new MINI, They're a blast to drive.

Here's a great place to start looking for custom ideas (one of my favorite threads on NAM). It goes all the way back to 2003 and even though a lot of the pics from the early posts have expired, there are still a ton to look at as you get futher in:

Sorry I got it and drove all day lol. Had to get up at 4am today to go to the Indy 500 and missed my new mini all day :-(

Is there a place I can find all the options on it? I want to make sure I'm not missing anything lol.

Here she is!
