davbret, i love your wheels, they look perfect on your car!

 

>> Hey SumWon.....
>> How did you get Cordoba Beige sport seats? Are those aftermarket or is your MINI Euro-spec or something?
>> I'm pretty sure it's not Euro-spec considering you have U.S. DOT reflectors on your wheel arches, but then the Cordoba beige throws me off..
>> Unless I'm the only one that doesn't know that you can now order Beige sport seats on 2003 MCS's...
>>
>>Looks good!

Some were asking about tint laws.
Here's a breakdown from state to state.

those arent very up to date.. at least for NY.

 

I can't believe all of the tasefully done mods I'm seeing. If you're still driving a 100% stock MINI, you're missing out on a chance to flex your creative muscles. I appreciate all of the post, but I'd like to see more.

my little pepper shaker!
just window tint, brake light tint and mod.

 

Davbret: All you need is the Hamann front lip and you are done on the exterior.
She's looking good!

 

Davbret: for my front turn signal lights, I have silver bulbs that still flash amber but they look white from the outside, you should get a pair...remove as much contrasting color as possible...it looks mental!

your car looks fantastic!

 

my current mods are:

Tinting; 5% rears, windshield visor, and sunroofs, 50% front sides
Stereo system; JL audio stealthbox, 2 Zapco amps and capacitor, Missing toggle space replaced with Subwoofer amp volume ****, and stealth box cover for amps.
And brake light mod!

Sorry the pics are kinda large. Hope this works!

 

Nice cars everyone.

Davebret your headlight trim is growing one me.

Pooky13. How much does the JL stealth box cost and how much room does it take up? I want a little more punch in my system but I need the luggage space since I travel for work.

Keep the mods coming :smile:

 

Heres my list.

Tinted Tails



Tinted Xenon Headlight



My own designed custom roof graphic.



Personal tag



Rage Racing and Toyo Proxes 18"



And a few more that I have done but don't have pictures yet. Now the preformance mods are another long list for another thread.

 

From the rear:
tinted tails and brake light mod, shadow boot stripe, extremely short antenna

 

vdub, On blacking out the side markers, did you use a film, or what? The car looks great.

 

And my NAV TV......
(Thanks to NAV TV in NY for the awesome install)

 

Clear tails and Magnaflow....

 

>>Ivan....that sig is SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,

The JL audio stealth box costs $499.00 with 10 inch sub already in the fiberglass body. Can only be purchased at a JL audio dealer though.
You can probably get it a bit cheaper if you have it installed by a pro audio shop.
You will need a good amp to power this thing! :smile:

 

davbret...could you please describe a bit your audio setup, particularly the boot setup. what subs, amps, eq, x-over, etc. and where/how they're setup. i'm debating between plain and simple, ie. jl mini stealthbox, and full-out custom, ie. custom enclosure with amp rack.

thanks

 

>>vdub, On blacking out the side markers, did you use a film, or what? The car looks great.

I used Plasti-Kote Bumper Black spray paint. I sprayed a couple of light coats on and it seemed to do the trick. I masked of the reflectors with masking tape and newspaper to preven overspray. I also lighty scuffed the reflectors so the paint would have more bite. The whole process took about an hour.

Pooky,
Hmmm I am thinking i might be able to have soemthing custom built with an 8" sub in a smaller enclosure and a small amp. I would luv to go with out a rear seat but I do not want the Race car Look when I am on the road and need to hid things in the trunk. I need to look deeper into this.

 

D-mini-ero,
Great job on the stripes and that sunroof graphic is superb! How's the pulley treating you?

 

I did the opposite of vdubdoug...



and a little UUC action

 

>>D-mini-ero,

Thanks :smile:
The pulley is the silver bullet for sure. When the car is cold it's a rocket.....
but....
in these 90+ days....it' does the best it can :smile:

I ordered a whalen shift ****...should get it soon.

I'm researching ecu & exhausts again....
ecu: either evotech or powerchip
exhaust: borla, nrp, uuc or cooper works

Peace,
D
