Updated Pics of Bergey - A Few Mods

It's been a while since I took new pics of my CR Cooper, Bergey. He was starting to get a complex.

After painting his brake calipers Sunday, I thought it was a good time. Here's a few shots showing off the "CHILI" red calipers. And yeah, the tires are a little TOO shiny, but after one day of motoring, they'll look a lot better.










And here's a shot of the engine bay. Recent mods: WMW/DDM Cold Air Intake, Kingsborne red spark plug wires, M7 Strut Tower Plates, and Rogue MINI "eyes" (swapped out the old ones for these).



I'd take a picture of the new Megan cat-back exhaust but you really can't get a good pic of that without a lift. Trust me, it's awesome.

Thanks, Chuck... from an owner of an extremely hot CR MINI, that's a highly appreciated compliment.

Cool.. the "Stillers" are my second favorite team.

Are you a baseball fan as well ? Notice I painted my calipers Phillies red.

Nice job, Chris! It's nice to see that you aren't neglecting Bergey anymore.

Thanks, Mike.

And "neglecting"... Bergey gets pampered more than a newborn's butt. The only neglect is that he hasn't had his pic taken in a while.

BTW... how's everything in MO ? No flooding problems in your neck of the woods, I take it. ??

Hot and humid(which means we're waiting on this year's crop of mosquitos to arrive). No flooding here, but S Illinois looks like the newest Great Lake. I think the Mississippi crested last week so maybe it'll start to dry out.

Ohhhhhhh yeah, I remember those mosquitos along the river. I think I was their favorite snack.

Glad you didn't have any problems there, Mike.
