My MINI is almost 2 years old. Look at the changes.

Warning: This thread is going to contain a lot of photos.

I've had my MINI for almost two years now. Besides a lot of mod changes, there were also a lot of aesthetic changes too. I figure I'd make a little picture show for everyone to enjoy.

Thanks everyone.

Nope, not even close to being done yet. A few minor things and then a couple major ones.

I was hit by a Nissan Pathfinder. T-Boned me when I was making a left turn.

Question: what do you do for a living? HOW do you find the time to do all this stuff? I wish I had enough free time to do mods on my car but I'll always get stuck in the middle of a job that can't be put off for tomorrow.

Haha... I'm actually a college student. When it was 'modding season' I was working 2 part time jobs. I was taking 5 classes, working at a non profit organization for afterschool and doing data entry at a graveyard shift position. It was a good cash flow since I was able to handle the workload. But now I'm interning and going to school so the cash flow is slower. I probably won't be doing mods until next season. Mods that I did was usually done on weekends where I rarely have free time. A lot of the heavier mods was done by our club's mechanic. He does great work for a great price. A lot of my parts, I buy brand new from NAM marketplace for a great price. All my friends tell me I'm really lucky with parts.

If I told you what I paid for my exhaust, M7 STB and rear sway bar, you would be angry at me.
