My pre-delivery MINI accessory stash
Here are all the goodies I've been slowly piling up while I wait for my CMS to be delivered later this month. Only thing missing from photo is proof of insurance
Any suggestions?
In photo from left to right: Chrome brake ducts, Stubby antenna from Craven Speed, OPT No Rinse, Rain-X, faux chamois, Armor All Wheel Protectant, Turtle Wax Tire Gel, badge from GoBadges, GoMiniGo no holes LBP.

lol I don't even know what half of that stuff is, but now I'm going out and getting some of it! 
I like to keep a space blanket and a set of gloves in my car for weather emergencies--other than that, I think you're ready.

I'll elaborate a bit for you, minimidd77:
Chrome Brake Ducts (for CMS) - picked these up from the dealer. They were the only thing I really wanted out of the chrome exterior package, so I was happy to find that I could purchase them separately to install myself.

CravenSpeed Stubby Antenna - To replace the long antenna that comes on the MINI. Purely aesthetic.

OPT No Rinse - a no-rinse car washing liquid. Since I live in an apartment complex without access to a hose to wash my car, this will let me go out to my car with a few microfiber cloths and a bucket of water to wash the car.

Rain-X - makes your windshield magically repel water. It just beads up and rolls off. You could almost drive in the rain without turning on your wipers (not that I'm advocating that, of course).

The Absorber - just a faux chamois to use for drying the car after the washes.

Armor All Wheel Protectant - apply after washing the wheels to keep off brake dust and other grime.

Turtle Wax Wet'n'Black Tire Gel - helps keep tires looking shiny and new.

GoBadge - Lots of fun badges to add to your grill or around your license plate.

GoMiniGo No Holes LPB - Nice way to install your front license plate without drilling holes in the bumper. Just attaches to the tow hook receptacle.
