Okay, that was uncalled for. I resemble that remark and up until now I've never felt insulted by anyone here at NAM. Thanks for pissing in my snow.

 

Sorry but hey... I see a lot of red MINIs with black wheels - it seems to be one of the more common "MOD" themes. Does it look good? Sure it does - heck, it's still cooler than most cars out there, but the only MINI I ever see more of than red is silver (usually not not always bone-stock).

True... red is a "classic" color, and I gotta say that I love the look of a red MINI with white stripes and a white roof, but it's not terrible unique (IMHO anyway). Of course, for most people, a "MODded" MINI is one with the changes I said: tinted windows, new wheels and MAYBE a roof graphic. If that bugs you well, what can I say? Sorry you went red.

Of couse, if red's boring or in bad taste then I guess I'm guilty as well, remember:

 

My guess is that even though red and black aftermarket wheels is common.....BEP with silver OEM wheels is even more common . Please just drop the bashing. My only point was that you shouldn't avoid a mod just because you see them on Dodges (or any other car) If you think it looks good, do it....don't avoid it just because you see it on Dodges.

Just like you didn't avoid the underglow despite it's usage on Dodges...others shouldn't base their judgement on the fact that a Dodge neon runs the same badges. Do what you like.

Well, the "BALLER" in the title suggested that this was posted as a humor thing - apologies for bruising the delicate egos in here I guess. Sing along with me kids...

"Every MINI's beeeyoooooootiful! It's it's own (very, very) special way!"

 

lol

the guy with underglows (neon or led or w/e, same rice crap), Christmas lights all around his car is bashin cr/b with black wheels... o snap.

 

Bashing? Was I unclear that I OWN a red Mini? I'm not bashing, but some people insist I am. Whatever.

 

The Shocker is so 1999…

 

Tell that to my.... well, lets not go there now

 

Way cool driving gloves Rally. Can I borrow them for my next track day at Nelson?

 

haha, for sure....though, I don't know if they are fire retardant or not

 

On second thought I'm staying with my nomex ones.

 

especially while typing......

 

It's so sad how these threads always degenerate into a jocks vs. geeks hatefest from high school all over again...

... while we ALL own CLOWN CARS that Dale Earnhardt Jr. wouldn't be seen driving into town...

Bad/Scary, yes...


But it's still a clown.

 

LOL!!!!!! Well, I'll say like I said in thepast.......just because you have neon or LED lighting, doesn't make you a ricer. ESPECIALLY if it is done right. Cats were putting neon lighting in their cars back in the'50s. History has an unusual way of repeating itself. I have it on mine and I ain't no ricer. Just a fan of rat rods.

 

Ouch! BTW CR/B with black wheels common? Yep, online. Never seen one rolling around in Miami though. I do however see a bunch of F&F cars rolling around...

BTW, you're shocker vinyls came out pretty cool but I bet you'll get bored of them soon. Liking the ride so far...
