Mini Updated Their Build Site

Im sorry if this has already been talked about. I went on to build a mini and noticed they added a jcw boost gauge cluster. I also noticed that they have added black driving lamps and have added the jcw aero kit for the regular cooper again. They also added a new set of black rims........ one being the black version of the jcw standard wheels.

The thing that I find the most intersesting is the jvw gauge cluster. It has to small gauges that go on either side of the tachometer.

What/where are the "black bonnet lights" that you spoke of? Are you talking about the Driving Lamps Black in Step 6's exterior styling ?

I'm glad it wasn't anything added that I would have wanted from the factory. Since I hit the factory floor this past week therefore can't add anything .

Everything in steps 5 and 6 of the configurator are dealer installed, and can be added any time.

True, but had they changed something in steps 1-4 that I wanted, I would have been sad.
