Holy crap!
The 2007 MINIS wont have a space for the eyes???
That's horrible! What were they thinking???
Makes me love my 06' even more though

 

With that, then, StoopidGirl, any chance we can get heavy duty eyes to cover the headlights while autocrossing? A member of my club wanted to know.

(By the way, nice to meet you and Tuls in Barstow and honored to be the first to purchase eyes from you on MTTS!!)

 

Hi Stoopidgirl, I'm that member.
I'd actually like something that will stand up to high speed on a track, and removable so I don't get pulled over on my way home. I'm not against a bit of racer tape on the top and bottom edges if needed to keep them down.

Oh... have fun at MTTS (I'm jealous)...

 

And in the meantime, just put my eyes on, and here they are. Again, the first set purchased at MTTS in Barstow. Love em!!

 

Here's some new eyes:

 

Hahah! That's awesome!

Thanks!

 

I've had lots of requests for these and although the art has been ready for a time, I'm testing various materials to find the best for this application. Get on our mailing list to be updated.

Need a test car in Los Angeles which does frequent track time. Anyone?

 

Hah! That looks great...amazing it looks like it's right out of Cars. Where did you find it?

 

Thanks! Got it on ebay. Be careful though - I first bought one that measured 27" x 67" which is HUGE and had to give it to my wife to use in the "MINI"van. I then ordered the smaller version with built in suction cups and fits great!

 

I didn't know you could do this to your mini????
I wonder If my Garfield could get Garfield eyes???
That's too cool!!!

 

Do you mean the windscreen eyes or the bonnet eyes?

If you mean the windscreen, I'd just purchase a cardboard, fold-up sun visor for a few bucks at an auto parts store and do them yourself with acrylic paint. they may fade after a while, though, but I bet the ones above will pretty soon as well. If you mean the under-bonnet eyes, I know that Miniswag sells eyes and I bet they'd sell you a set of blanks, then you can just do them like you see fit:

I searched ebay...can't find it, must be using the wrong search term.

 

Search for "Cars auto shade". Currently there is only one listed, but it is the 27" x 67" version which is too large :(.

 

Hey thanks, now my mini's getting a pair!!!

 

I'm on track at Miller Motorsports Park in Utah on the 9th of September. If you have a set of prototypes you'd like me to try out, PM me.

 

I don't know if StoopidGirl posted them yet, but here are my Wicked Wanda's custom eyes:



I love 'em!

 

Love them 10 thumbs up!

 

Wow MINIclo, those are GREAT!

Here's mine - love 'em, thanks StoopidGirl (and so does my neighbor who I also gave a pair to)

 

wow I had no idea all this was going on.
US-that's an AWESOME shot, wow...and I do mean wow
05D-hopefully those miniswag ones will work for your headlights. I'd love to help but I don't see it happenning right now. I've been playing some serious catch up since returning from MTTS

As for the sunscreen ones I'm pretty sure Joe from the DCMetro Minis provides those, he's an agent for Allstate or State Farm(can't remember)...I don't think he's too hard to track down. He should be able to help. Good luck.

I will be updating my site soon to add some of these great photos. Thanks everyone, as always you rock. I am also becoming a vendor here on NAM and have some great new items too offer. Soon I'll have some more original designs like t-shirts and such...I can't wait, my fingers are crossed :D

 

Hi, Emily! Nice to see you back on NAM again. Good luck with your business ventures!

 

Thanks Clo
ps
Clo-when are you going to take a real picture! I vant a peeeeeecature :D and a visit...I'm heeeere

 

Well, due to family funerals and ill parents, I've been kind of unavailable.

Poor Wanda....she needs a makeover. Her graphics are worn out. I'm thinking of going stealth for a while.......

 

awww, sorry to hear that Clo. Hopefully things will get better soon

big squishy E hugs

 

Just ordered my Eyes from MotorSwag last night



Unfortunatley there's not much of a market yet, so they were "Custom Order". Regardless, I can't wait to get them and will post pics as soon as they're on

Thanks again Jeff
