Man, you have(or had...I don't know if you kept the dark silver one...) two of the sickest Minis I have ever seen...Only wish I could jump across the pond and see them in person!
I know it may not be everyones' taste, but I think that you come up with absolutely killer interiors! The amount of work and detail is incredible
Can't wait to see more of your stuff...and when you get rid of your interior let me know

+1 - it may not be for everyone (and probably not something I would actually *want* ) but the quality and workmanship is amazing. It looks great!

Thanks for the info on the gas cap, and you're right, it does look very good a little more flush.
Oh, but your hazard button is crooked. ( I kid, I kid )
Looks great man!

Is that a boost gauge where the clock was? Very cool idea if so.

Wow - that is pretty cool.

Where's that pimp kid with the big box of lumber in the back, he should be checking your stuff out!

Ha ha i knew someone would pick up on that i literally had a 2 hour drive ahead of me that i had to do in an hour and half to unveil it on friday night at half 8. it really wound me up it went in slightly crooked but i let it drop for that show as the centre console was coming back out for some more work once we returned. Thanks for the poistive feedback.

thats ok thats what we built the car for was to inspire people i can totally appreciate that i doubt any normal mini driver would want the big ice etc but this wasnt built to appeal to your average driver it was to showcase what was possible and for people to take snipets of. Thank you again.

Yes that is a boost guage i wanted to keep the dash as symetrical as possible hense getting rid of the handle on the glove box also and motorizing it.

I don't think your a biter at all im glad people appreciate it and can now hopefully join the lime green club it was a really scary thing to do and needed ***** but i wanted to get noticed (not for the best looking mini or whatever just for my work). The wheels are cool but good luck building the centre caps or even finidng a set there off a rolls royce phantom then machined and split to fit so my logo never spins woop woop

Being a Pepper White owner and seeing the Joey mod on the head lights is making me reconsider my decision not to do it ! I like quite a few of the things you've done, the interior color is not my cup of tea but certainly you've done an outstanding job, Love smoothed out dash and center console, Well done ! I'm curious as to why you left the belt line chrome since it would appear that you've shaved and removed the rest of the chrome bits . I couldn't see the door handles and wondered if they have been done in black ?

Again, amazing work !

I love the aero kit front bumper with the middle slot filled in. Someday maybe I'll get one...

The only thing I would change on the front would be to paint the trim on the top aero grille. I think it lines up better visually with the lower grille that way.

Hands down one of the cleanest and well executed cars I've seen in a while. You did a great job mixing the subtle mods with loud mods and then accented the whole thing with a perfect color scheme. Do you have any more pics to share with us?
