Nice, Flame spokes are quite rare option to see outside of R53 Checkmate, have not seen them on to many R56 models. Congrats.

Nice BRG, the Florida weather keeps those MINIs so clean.

It definitely does help! Although it took almost 4 hours for it to look that way. I was getting ready to go to a car show that weekend.

BTW you guys rock! I've ordered several products from you guys and they've always been better quality than what I was expecting!

If my Miata was still in that kind of shape, I wouldn't have sold it and got a MINI!

Hotchkis springs, Koni yellows, 25mm rear bar, 27mm front bar, adjustable rear arms, and lots of Powerflex bushings.

I need to update this pic. Imagine 7-spoke gunmetal grey wheels, and checkered mirror caps. And checkered rear spoiler, which you couldn't see anyway in this pic. Then there is the M7 fiberglass hood scoop, in semi-gloss black, and I painted the brake intake ducts red.
