The HK drive and play. I see you mounted the thumb wheel replicator in the front of the center armrest - nice idea. Did you have the mount specially made as it iis such a good fit? Where did you mount the monitor?

They are 18" OZ Ultraleggeras. I didn't want to keep their logo, so modified the caps with JCWs.

Yes, it's dark silver with silver roof and mirrors. I am sorry about the photo quality, but I need a little more time to finalize the interior.

I am a member of NAPP too.

I am sorry, but I don't have interior photos yet, will update as soon as I have them.

The gray piping was removed and stitched back with red. It's done in Glendale, CA. Let me know if you are around, I'll provide with contact number.

I'm on the other coast, otherwise I'd take you up on that. It's exactly the look I'm after, down to the JCW dash

That is a beautful car. Have you thought about red mirror caps? I think it'd look better on your car than the GP. Maybe someone can photoshop them, I bet it'd be sharp....

Wow

MINIyegor, your car is amazing! I too am interested in ultimately going for a red/black look with my DS MCS and the great shots of your car really confirm this for me. I'll be looking forward to the full interior shoot!

I would think you could get this car in a show or something if you wanted to!

The mirrors actually have 0.25" red pins, similar to the stripes. You can see them in Buttonwillow gallery (first post). I don't want to make them full red, since I think they will dominate and look odd. The theme is: dark silver, pure silver, black and red accents. My goal is to keep the car's look as factory tuned, and I think it was very successful. Several MINI owners stopped and asked me if that's a special edition MINI.
