There are companies that make replica plates for every state and lots of 'time frames', like the old 50's and 60's california plates and what-not. If you get a good replica plate, it should pass for legal, depending on your states laws.

Unless your state has something saying 'must be issued by us', it should fly. Usually the rules say things more along the lines of 'cannot cover the plate' and 'state & county must be visible'... etc...

Again, depends on your state, but the replicas are pretty close, if not the same.

Here's mine. I have to take better pics. It's like this, only, with the windows up all the time, the sunroof open, and the black fuzzy dice in the window. G'yeah, boyee.

Looking for our old JB

Around Jan we traded in our 04 JB/B MCS for an 06, and I've often wondered if anyone on this board ended up with it. If so, shoot me a PM

You'll know you've got it if its got:

3 Packages
Leatherette
H/K
Anthracite Dash
Chrome grill
Driving lights
No Nav, No PDC
Ipod adapter
17s
Full toggle panel
Alta pulley
Aftermarket rear sway
VIN that ends in TD81209

Here's a pic of it on the showroom floor at Classic. Is it out there?

I guess I don't really belong in this thread but I want to comment anyway. They didn't have jet black for 2006 but one of my top choices for colors was astro black. Yes I think I ended up not getting it because it wasn't reallly realllly black. Another reason is that I wanted bonnet stripes ... I drooled over many pictures of a black mini with white stripes but when a friend saw it and made a comment that it was like a skunk ... well, that ruined it for me. Every time I would think ... skunk? Haha no offense to all you JB out here. My favorite favorite is the pure black with chrome outlines, EXTREMELy classy. Beautiful.

Darth cooper would be my friend's dream car. With the driver included of courrse.

Lillith in all her stock nakedness. She will be blacked out soon enough, minus the wheels. I'm broke right now.

Are those silver stripes with a white border? If so, where did you get them? And are they magnetic? TIA.

Here's Obie (click on thumbnail). He's an '05 jet black Cooper with Premium and Sport packages. I have since added chrome side grills, white repeater lenses, and a K&N 57i intake. I am investigating a number of other mods.
