>>And Doug, any updates on the Custom Team MightyMiniZ *****?

I'm trying to remember what's going on with that.
Seems to me that I was waiting for a final design from someone.

Sorry; too many things happening around here at the same time, and only one (small) brain trying to manage it all!

>>>>Scooper, lookin' at the pix again and I noticed the terry cloth behind the cup holders... me too! I keep several of them in the cockpit to keep things from rattling around and to polish things up. Your's blue, mine's white.

>>Aha, you found it in my picture, didn't you?
>>Good finding...
>>Actually it's "Micro Fiber Cloth" and this really works in the cockpit.
>>You can also wipe up the **** to improve its shine!

Funny...that wasn't mine, but I do the same thing...microfiber. And to bring it back on topic, the Whalen does raise the height a little, but it fits me better (I'm about 6 feet tall). The satin finish looks great...although I imagine that someone wearing rings might scratch it up, so be careful...

Scratch by ring? Good point! Very possible, because it's so beautiful and shining...
Again, the diameter of the Whalen's **** is perfect fit in my palm.
Besides, the **** slides a little bit in my palm when shifting and this gives me really good feeling...

I'll get you another picture.

I have to agree with the Whalen ****. Its perfect in every way and serves a couple of purposes: The normal shifter and toss it in a bag when traveling through a rough area like Camden, NJ and now its a weapon.

I had mine done to match my license plate with letters instead of numbers for shift points. Also the top is chrome and the rest is brushed. Its a classy ****. If only I could figure how to get a pic on here then I would show. If you would like to see head over to MINI2.com and see my profile under MudBud.
