Yes, That's why I did my roof with checkers. I have only seen 2 other MINI's in town and one would have to be the same PS/Black would it?

>>New wheels and tail light mods are easy ways to spice up your MINI. Have fun. You don't go around twice in life but if you are lucky you will be to buy a MINI more than once!
anyone seen the hartge classic wheels avail. in USA yet?

There is a solid pure silver the next complex over. It was there when I moved in though so I have no beef with it.

I saw a vr/white 10 blocks away the week I got my car. But polythene pam is till the only vr/b I've seen in person. And I have never ever ever seen anyone with my wheels, and they're mini wheels too!

>>i want to do it, but am not inclined electronically

you don't need to be electronically inclined at all... its super easy. i did mine in five minutes. i still have extra stuff to do more.. so if anyone lives near me and wants it done, i can do it. i keep the supplies in my boot box
(i did take a lamp class so its done the right way, instead of the paperclip way... )

>>I was suprised to see another double Dark Silver MCS in my area. There's not a whole lot of MINIs around here at all in the first place. But when I saw this one, it kinda shocked me. A few of my buds saw it before I ever did, and thought it was me. I still get strange people waving hello at me. I know they probably think I'm the other guy. It's the exact same color on the body and roof, interior, stock wheel type, and all. Except now I have Konig wheels and Yoko tires, and some decals. So either someone else had the same idea as me, or they saw mine and copied it.
>>Cheers,

MadMan: What area are you in? I have a "double Drk Silver Mini" Blk & Gry interior.
Just picked it up 30 May 03. As far as I'm concerned it's the best color to
buy. Ordered it in March. I'm in the Antelope Valley area above LA. I will
soon have my Aero kit installed, White tail lights, and rims so if I'm the
one you're talking about, it won't be long. I'm no copy cat.
