I ordered on Feb 26 and received an email Friday asking which gas cap I wanted, and that my order is in production. I can't wait to get these.

Good news then MüShädd.....I ordered on 17th February, so I shant be far behind ye !

Guess I should have asked him for partial credit and to ship my order unpainted if that was the hold up. I just re-painted my M7 Hood Scoop Dark Silver and clear coated it, I could have done them all today myself.

Wow guys, they are moving on really quickly by the sounds of it. I got an email today confirming that the badges I want were for the Cooper and not the S. I ordered on the 12th-ish of March. Shouldn't be too far off now!

OK, here are the pics - its been raining and its overcast, and the car is dirty but they look great. Its just what I expected and well worth the wait in my opinion. Kudos to Mike .

Its petty but the only thing I don't care for it the feel of the door handle when you open the door - you can feel the edges of the cover whereas on stock you can't feel anything. Very minor in my opinion and it won't bother me a bit as it looks so good.

Still waiting for mine, I ordered March 12. Hannah contacted me on 4.29 about which model car so, they could get me the correct wings.

D@mn! I just noticed that they have OEM style gas caps now. Last I talked to Mike they could only do it with a "lightning bolt" or "cooper S" pressed into it. I didn't the gas cap because of what was pressed into it, But now that they do OEM styled ones I want one. My original Idea was to just spray my cap.

I contacted mike and hannah to see if they could add it to my order. Fingers crossed.

Dark Silver Head Light Surrounds B4/After

Aesthetic Creations packaged arrived Friday afternoon. I just figured it contained some decals I ordered so it was set aside, well it did. Along with the headlight surrounds ordered as well....Would have opened the box sooner had I known....

Here are some before and after pics of my MINI. The pieces are of excellent quality. Fit and finish matches OEM paint perfectly. And a test of my headlight squirters gleaned no clearance issues.

Thanks Mike !

Very nice! I got my door handles and badges yesterday. the biggest surprise was the stickers that came with the badges...MINI logo, transformers, skulls, MINI BMW and others! However, i went with a custom decal on mine.

I'm glad to see some Happiness on here We still have 66 orders and some are half done and some just need to be painted.

Had a set back this weeks as my new guy worked on them on his own. The good news is he is ready to leave the nest. The not so good news is it's still slow going with the trimming for him so we only finished 3 full sets this week.

He will get better the more he does. Starting next week there will be 2 people making them at the same time so we should get twice as much done.

All of you that have received your stuff I would love to get some good pictures of them when the weather clears up to put in the gallery.

NOTE

For those that are waiting for us to get "caught up" to place your order consider this. We get new orders every day so Don't wait! Order NOW so you can get on the list
