Thanks for the props Ryan! I've got a Borla exhaust on it. The headlights and the turns have the Lamin-X protectors on them. Gives a little blueish tint to the lens.
I'll have to take some shots of the interior. I've got the B&M short shifter with a Momo shift **** and an aluminum e-brake handle.
Thanks for posting the pic! :smile:

Wheels are FLIK Wasps. They make them in black and anthracite. I got them through Edge Racing.

Sweet Mini, I was thinking of possibly the same solid black for myself.

Ryan,

I have non-xenon. Didn't like the little pop-up washer thingy. I got the brake handle off of e-Bay. I believe I paid about $30 with shipping. I did a search under e-Bay motors > interior > and then brake. Hope this helps!

Thanks for all the great comments!!!
