Look really good. I didnt think all black with the roof top would look good. But yours looks really good with all the trims painted and lowered. Looks good

Nice! That first photo made me originally think you had a funky grey stripe on the side, which was really unique. Seattle is close enough to let me borrow your car.

Congratulations, it looks great.

It is also a dedication to own a black car.

I just have a black roof and it is a nightmare to look nice.

Again, you are a lucky guy,

My 2015 JCW is all black also....I wish I could have one in every color, but the black metallic just looks awesome imo! It's a big MINI and black makes it look smaller, and with the red JCW design clues with the black theme, it just "works!"

Wish I had the pro coilovers however...makes the stance look so much better. The front splitters look sweet as well...those should come stock on the JCW!

As far as cleaning, I've had several black cars and I really don't mind cleaning as it's good therapy...I'd constantly clean "any color"....it's the OCD I suppose!

Cheers,

John

I was quite skeptical about the stance of the JCW coilovers, but I'm here to say, it's PERFECT! It actually sits lower than my R56 did w/H&R springs.

Window tint tomorrow, and then lots of FUN driving ahead!

Haury's Lake City Collision is Lake City (Seattle) did the paint work. They do all of Seattle MINI's work. Excellent job!

Looks excellent! I like the coilovers. It's a bit black for my tastes but my car is dark grey/red too. I bet it goes like a bat out of hell.

Window tint done (35%). Pretty much all I'm gonna do for now. Sorry about the grainy quality of the pictures.....it was getting dark rather quickly right after I got done washing it.

Car looks awesome. Any rubbing at all with your set up? Your set up is the JCW coilovers and spacers, that's it correct?

There's no rubbing at all. Or at least none that I have heard or felt thus far (less than 100 miles on the car).

Correct.....JCW Pro Coilovers and 12mm spacers f&r. Stock tires.
