I will be getting better pics from a friend of mine who is a photographer in the weeks to come, especially when I have my stripes on her.

 

Chow!

Very nice Xanthus!!!! I like how the wheel and other options you chose...and that roof!...are so harmonious and consistent in appearance. Look like all the elements are just meant to be together. Nice job!!!!

 

::bows:: TYTYTY

 

Xanthus:

Beautiful ride! Two questions for you:

1) How much more did you pay for the checkerboard roof sticker? Who installed it?

2) The red reflectors in the bumper...is that part of the "Euro Package" or is it an aftermarket thingy???

 

Looks hot! Very consistent, together-looking MINI. You've got a theme running there!

 

It's a MINI Cooper. WooHoo. Those night photos with the black exterior lead me to believe that you'd purchased a F-111 Stealth fighterjet.

Enjoy your new baby.

 

:smile: :smile: Would it be totally dumb to checker the mirrors????? I won't be offended if it's not a great idea. I was up til two, got up this a.m. at 6 and am now plodding through the work day. Creativity is at an all time low. But I do think it might look good???! :smile:

 

That is the dealer roof decal. They did not wanna try and handle the one from Cooper Flags.

I will make final decisions on what I will do in the longrun as soon as my bonett stripes come in.

 

The red reflectors are part of the clear tail light package (actually seperate part number but same kit) - these reflectors are required by law if you have clear tail lights as there must be something that reflects red at the rear of the car.

It is just that most people tend to not like them and don't put them in..only heard of a few people that have been hassled due to not having them.

 

ok, when is the next event???

 

Updated pics added.

 

love the pics

the door sill plate is a very nice addition

also ur most bottom bumper grille..is that steel instead of black?

 

now it looks like a car

 

so does ur bumper have holes in them for the reflecor?

most 03 mcs i have seen wtih the clear ligths..they had a dealer installed reflecter by the license plate

i am not sure i would want to put holes in the bumper

 

Congrats!
Changing the side repeater lens to white definitely works well in this color combo.
Doesn't look like that's the stock exhaust. Is that a Borla?

 

sullivan

i believe that its stock exhaust wtih tip

 

The exhaust is the factory upgrade tip.

I was planning on getting chrome air intakes on the sides as soon as I deide which ones I like.

 

How's the reception w/ the shark-fin?
You did get to keep the stock parts (tail lights, antenna), right?

 

wouldnt the shark fin mean he has navi?

Very Nice! Your X will be jealous as all get-out!
The stripes will be great too.

>>wouldnt the shark fin mean he has navi?
Why yes, Watson. That would most likely be true.

well u asked him if he got to keep his stock parts i.e. antennae

well if his car came with nav, that means his stock antennae is the shark fin. then what other antennea are u talking about?
