This is my personal list of favourite MINIs, not in a particular order:

MISFITOY
Lohen Mini One
Tuls
Gnatster
John Monk's The Beast
Dopamine
Longboard
Dr.PhilGandini
OctaneGuy

That said, having a PS justacooper I'm taking a bit of inspiration from MSFITOY's and from the Lohen one, MSFITOY's because it's the best PS I have seen and it was his car that actually convinced me that the Team Dynamics would look good on PS, and the Lohen one because it's the best looking justacooper (actually that is a One but it's mostly the same) I've ever seen. It also sounds very good, that's the reason why I chose a Milltek catback for my ride and I love it so much!!

Needs to be lowered, but otherwise very clean and simple

I'm thinking it's their RAM scoop based on endless reading I did last night, lol. Not 100% sure, but looks like the one I'm going to buy after my engine rebuild.

Mine shine red too thanks to the wrap. Since you have the rear fog you should be able to swap the wires between the backups and rear fog so you are running the fogs in the tail and the single low reverse. If you wanted to change it that is.

I just added in the low reverse and have the tail reverse lights still shining red since I didn't have (or want rear fogs).

I ordered my car with the rear fog, I personally like having it ! I have used it on more than one occasion while running in fog and also in big groups of Mini's running in a tight pack threw the twisty's. If gives me a little piece of mind by drawing a little more attention to the rear of my car. You have a good idea about turning the fog into a reverse light ! I could just change it out for a clear lens backup light if I ever needed too. I personally don't miss the back up light, it never really seem to throw much light and truth is, I don't think any non Mini owner would notice it's missing unless I pointed it out.

To tell the truth, I don't like much the green interior, and the wheels, but anything else is very nice! What front seats do you have?

The green is a bit wild yes but owning an audio and interior business i have to stand out from the crowd lol.

The seats are AUDI RS4 seats

Ah, well, if it's good for business then it's ok

The seats looked like Recaros in fact, i was thinking they were the R56 JCW ones...are those the same as the Audi RS4? If not, they must be very similar I think...

To be honest I absolutely love the green. Nice idea displaying the tach down low. And the audio controls in the boot lid is sweet.
