Who's car do I have?

So I purchased my MCS in August and I love it. But I do notice that it has a decent amout of mods, and was wondering if the previous owner is on here and could tell me if there is more done to it than I know.

The car is an 04 Cooper S its dark silver with black stripes. I purchased it from Paul Miller Audi in Parsippany, Nj. So far from what I know that car has, Invidia Catback, it HAD JCW Intake, Auto Up windows, 3rd brake light pulsar, Red carbon fiber dash trim, Tinted windows, Rally Lights, Chrome Interior package, black tailights with tint overlay on them, Center armrest with flip top. Thats all I can really think of right now. Back in august when I bought it, it had 55-56k on it. If anyone can help me, Id greatly appriciate it!!

Edit: It also has auto fogs, and one other thing, the stripes on the roof are silver to offset the black roof.

Have you poked around inside, looking for clues? I have yet to buy a used car that doesn't have somewhere, a piece of paper or two left behind that ID's the previous owner.

With my MINI, I not only know the name and address of the previous owner, but I know the name of her dog and what vet she used.

I have a little bit, but unfortunately the dealer did a good job of cleaning it out and didnt seem to leave much behind:/. Here are some pics. Im going to do some more digging in the car today and see what I can find.

I remember that car... the owner brought it to us after he rolled it. We repaired it and he sold it.






Sorry, couldn't resist.... looks great though.
