I just think on the 07s we will need to be more creative.

Such as wheel centercaps, vinyl graphics/clings, etc...

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
Wait til you see the surprise that I'm including....

MiniChik!-woot! congrats! I love your MINIs name too! hahahaha that's awesome

Justin-Tuls hand made it for me. It made a huge difference, I gained horsepower (noticably) and she's much throatyer (if that's a werd). If you're looking for one just contact the Fireballed team, I would think they can help you out.

That looks like a custom paint job on the injector cover. Cool look. What kind of paint did you use? Any trouble with the paint peeling because of heat? I was looking into getting that cover chrome plated but every place I checked recommended against it because of heat. If that cover was metal it would be easy to do, but because it's plastic the chrome they use is really a coating (not true plating). Interested to know how that paint has held up.

Nice eyes everyone!
