Looks great!!! Like the new sig too

Reminds me why I have one that looks the same

 

Hey Twon,

When I got my aero grill color coded I also ordered the driving lights at the same time, then a few days later I noticed you posted up pictures of your MCS JCW and yep, it's PW/B with aero and color coded grill with driving lights! Hey, might be twins separated at birth! I got a March 2006 build year, you?

 

I've finally taken a picture of mine after tint, some extra vinyls, and my emblem wraps (lyle did a great job)

 

Well, it looks as yours is four months mines senior! Built July 06, maybe just cousins, but both gorgeous non the less!!! Apparently mine needs better grooming habits compared to yours though,

I haven't decided yet if I like the white grill better then the black that you had. I am just now started to lean toward the white.

How did you end up wiring the lights? I meant to post in your other thread, I am a bit embarrassed to admit, but it wasn't until reading your question, that I figured out how to turn those darn things on , I ran right out at work and poof, they turned right on (with the high beams of course). I had only had the car for a few days at that point.

 

Great job on the vinyl, I like the no chrome look

 

Tripp is my MINI's Northern California cousin, Twon, if your ever down in SoCal let me know!

 

, will do!!

Likewise to you if you are ever in the Bay Area

 

Gil-galad,

Thanks for the welcome. I am already inspired by some of the photos others have posted just today. Those rear stripes look great!

 

WOW!!! That is super cool lookin'!!!!

I love the little orange lights in the front!!!

 

Wow. That is one AWESOME looking PW! Can we get a closeup of the grill badge? The who car just has so many points of interest, but there is a flow to everything. Great job!!! Thanks for posting the pics!

 

Nice to see another PW/B with the rotator spokes.

 

Maybe we can have tea?

 

Yeah I really do like them on the car. The only time I feel like they arent enough is when I'm at a meet and see others with a drop and 17s, but I want to keep those wheels on I think and just have them powder coated black one day.

Thanks yeah Im glad I didnt go with the white lights because I like how the orange lenses add a piece of color

Did you mean me? If so hear is a close up of the badge (well the grill in general)

 

Well you think of them and smile when you're going over some bumpy roads!
I don't know what tires you ended up getting but I was required to get the summer performance tires with those rims. Since I'm in the midwest (winters/snow) I switched them out for all seasons in a larger size. The ride is nicer and the slightly larger sidewall is better with the wheel gap.

 

Yeah thats what I love is that i get a smoother ride compared to them...i have the summer performance tires (florida so all that is needed)...the only thing that makes me want to get other rims is for the width...oem are so narrow and i would love to see how much the handling improves with 8 or 8.5s

 

Yep, I meant you! Thanks for the close up! I LOVE your car!

 

Uh Oh! He's on to me! I warn you though, I put milk and sugar in my tea ............

 

Thank you

 

checkercoop, I never thought I would like a MINI with as much decoration as yours has but I really, REALLY love it!!!!

 

Yeah there were times when I was planning it that i thought it could be too much, but once i started photoshoping some test, I just thought it needs more, and then I would find it only and try it out. When I tried it without the angled MINI side stripes it just seemed open, but the stripes kinda close in the car and pull it together. Same thing when i tried no checkered and only angled MINI. Once those stripes were on I had to get rid of the chrome I just went to walmart and got automotive primer, plastic paint, and a thick clear coat that only requires 1-2 coats (i used 3-4 ) and it leaves the paint soo strong...ive had no chips yet

 

Great pics, I'm loving seeing all the new '07s.
I've added 993, PPrince and ezpeasy. Welcome all to The Peerage!

PWs in the "nineties" rule. Congrats also to CooperAddict for snatching up the final legit double-digit Peerage number!

 

Thought I'd post a couple of pics of Boo (#21) in the Peerage thread showing off the new Aero kit he got for Christmas.

 

Do not sell the rear aero bumper!
