R50/53 What to buy for $150.00
What to buy for $150.00
My Mini's boot was licence plate stamped this week from another car
could not justify the cost even if its not my money to replace the bumper
So I will live with the blemish's saved the other Driver the ticket and expense of insurance going up
So I just asked for 150.00 after she was relieved She told me the next day that she needs a accident free record for her job
So I was left feeling great about it and asked her to pay it forward if it happens to her
So My question to the group how should I spend it on my mini ?
Need to replace the rear badge so that's $40.00
Here is what I thought so far
New Licence plate frames to replace the cheapo plastic ones (lets Motor on the rear) or a non mini brand
JCW Floor mats the checker pattern since I own a Checkmate
Or JCW Carbon Fiber shift **** ?
Any ideas on what to give my mini and yes I can go over in price

I would have asked $210+. I found my rear bumper got bumped by several times by people parallel parking and the quote I got was $210 to repaint it at a local shop before I return the car end of lease later this year...
IN MY OPINION the JCW CF stuff is total crap and you will be disappointed after a short time when it starts peeling.
Are you a DIY kinda owner? Plugs, wires, oil change stuff, air filter (stock or otherwise) will all help prolong the fun.
Into performance? Adjustable sway bar end links maybe?
Or, as previously mentioned, a couple tanks of Premium.

depends what you want to do with the car
if you are a DIY then
performance : Pulley + belt
handling : rear sway bar
interior : checkered mats + LED bulb conversion
exterior : tinted windows OR JCW grill

I suppose we're all guilty of overlooking things once in a while
