Fitted 18's to my Astro Black S a couple of weeks ago
What is up with your exhaust? I see the right tip has the black soot that all MINIs have. But the left tip has no soot at all? I clean MIB's tip with each wash but it always gets sooty again about a week later. It only takes a few days for the front chalk break pads to muck up the front wheels.
No offense TSR53, but I like Saakey's version better. It better shows the blue and silver undertones.
Saakey: Got a version of the Astro Black logo with your car in it? I would like to swap yours for the one in my sig.
well no worries, Mr. Thompson (TSR53) himself said he was going to fix it using my car ... I got the p.m. from him earlier ...let him fix it and we'll use that one
The AB owner's club logo looks great - anyone doing a sticker?
Yes the RHS pipe does tend to be sooty. Some people reckon it due to the RHS pipe being shorted that the LHS from the muffler (but again there were beers involved) :D

Thank you for the kind words on my design. Yes, the response for having cling-on window stickers, T-Shirts and magnetic grille badges has been overwhelming. Since I own the design, and graciously donated the small digital versions of the Owner's Club badges for NAM use only, I think that it would only be appropriate to offer these for sale.
