Black grill surround, go-badge holder, and a couple of badges...that's all I know about so far.

A couple of gobadges for the grill, here.

We are hoping that a Santa will bring union jack cupholders and a stubby antenna with a union jack on top.

New NGK cold heat range spark plugs, an oil change, NM Engineering Titanium lower control arms, and a Way Motor Works ECU tune.

She's getting the missing toggle for the rear fog lights. After getting the chrome dash trim pieces a few years ago she wants the rest of the shiny parts. :lol:

Mine is getting left in my garage in warm SoCal while I spend christmas with family in frigid Ohio.

He also got a new $248 registration sticker for his birthday/christmas.

I also think my mom bought me the NAM calendar for one of my presents :)

My advice would be to just plasti dip the mirror caps as its very easy and only costs 7/8 bux with tax. Better than the 75/100 bux to buy different ones.

Mine has.. or is getting a Riss Racing Catless Downpipe. Other than that, prolly not much else. Only had the car for 3/4 months and already bought numerous things for it :)

sparco 17" drift wheels, wet oakly seat covers, sport struts,.......

Mini x-mas gifts
 
Mine gets gifts all year, like premium fuel, driven daily, (parked for the winter months though) regular cleanings, top notch maintenance and a garage to park in every night:nod:. What more can a car ask for :thumbsup:

Melangell Dec 16, 2012 08:13 AM

L'il Red the Dread Pirate has just gotten an Akrapovic DP w/Delete R, VIP Custom DP-back exhaust and TSW 19" RSB, BUT... for the new year will be getting Way's exhaust manifold, NM Short Shift adapter (with modded assembly cover) and much wider stripes with black painted hood scoop.

CA94960 Dec 16, 2012 08:47 AM

I just put on a set of new wiper blades and arms - an early Christmas gift. :thumbsup:

Porthos Dec 16, 2012 08:59 AM

A new Turbo, water meth, wheels, tires coilovers, and a tune.

Is this the same plasti dip you use for tools etc. or some other product? Thanks For the info.

fastzombie Dec 20, 2012 10:26 AM

I may be pulling the trigger on a Milltek CatBack Exhaust.

One and the same. If you do a NAM search on Plastidip you'll see all the things people do with it. It's a popular mod option since it's entirely reversable.

A bumpin set of subs and speakers along with a new sterio

MikewithaMini Dec 20, 2012 01:11 PM

It's been Christmas since May when I got him! BUT... I think a new antennae (stock replacement) and perhaps some checkered lug nut covers will be in the stocking. Taking my friends JCW on a road trip to the Hill Country.
