I did a joey mod and then painted the rings hyper blue.
You don't need to bake the headlight, in fact, doing that is just dangerous. All you need is a heat gun.

I of course no longer have my R50, but I still loved it just the same as my current R53.







Stripped of most of the graphics when I sold it. It had the Cooper S rear bumper cover on it. This car was a blast to drive and I have a lot of really very fond memories in it!

A joey mod involves painting the inside of the headlights. In my case, and what most people do is black. The chrome on the inside is ugly so why not get rid of it. In order to get inside the housing there are two approaches, you can throw the whole thing in the oven to soften up the silicone seal, or you can use a heat gun and work your way around.

no, on the pictures it´s an Bastuck Double Central. but since a few days I have a Jama/Laser F1 exhaust. It´s quite nice and very loud

Thanks, but I had much luck, to find those The orange background is 2 1/2 hours away from me and I had no camera with me, as I was there So it´s only a picture with my mobile phone :( By the sunflowers, I had a lot of luck that I had my good cam with me
I hope the following summer will be a good photo-summer

Here's a "placeholder" of mine being teased by its new Rota's and Potenza's. Will get real pics once the rolling stock is installed.





Here it is on the lot just before I got it a year and a half ago...
