Race Graphics Went On Today!

It's at least 10 MPH faster now.

Seriously though...psyched how it came out. Graphics are all vinyl, including the black fender just behind the hood. Orange mirror caps will finish it off.

Got the car last Tuesday. Neuspeed wheels and Direzza DII's went on two days ago. H-Sport Competition Swaybar today, and graphics. Racing tomorrow.

Car is running D Street (tomorrow) then will be a (hopefully) nationally competitive STX build.

You need more low. Wheel gap kills.

Literally not a single positive comment. Go mini community go!

Ps... Can't lower the car in d street. It makes it illegal for the class.

That car looks great! Tidy and eye catching and classy.

And definitely faster!

May the force be with you,

Yeah, No need to lower, it's a too much of pain. The graphics are very cool.

PS: I run the same size tire/wheels as yours. Honestly I think the MINI looks better with the 16's as Its a retro styled car.

2002 S on 17s and 1979 (very modified FYI of any Mini experts who notice the discrepancy) on 10s
