Sniper didn't end up buying thee car in the original post, read some of the last comments in the thread.

 

just so everyone know s that silver one at the top of the thread is NOT the one I bought. I bought an Indi Blue one with a white roof. I'll post pics when I detail the car tomorrow

 

Alright, here's the new car. I didn't get any pics after the car was cleaned since it was raining out, but I got a few in the garage and outside when it was dirty.

 

here are some more pics. that last picture with the tape on the stripe is UNcorrected. I was just trying to capture paint defects.

 

great looking MINI!

 

Great looking car

 

It's definitely nicer than the silver one, imo. Course maybe the silver one just wasn't for me, ha. I love the tail lights on the one you ended up getting!

 

here is the car being cleaned with the new wheels, and painted tail lights. It's currently in pieces since I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with the clutch/flywheel.

 

Lovin' the wheels. I really need to get a new set.

 

long time no update guys. Well since my throwout bearing grenaded itself I replaced the clutch assembly with a Spec Stage 1 kit along with the a brand new slave cylinder and a Fidanza Lightweight flywheel. Unfortunately about 1.5 miles after i got all of this working the starter died, so I had to have that replaced as well. To add to the damage on the way home from getting the starer replaced my supercharger belt started to shred apart. Making lemonade out of lemons I ordered a 15% Ultrik pulley, belt, belt tensioner, and Detroit Tuned tensioner stop for cheap insurance and I'm happy to say the car is back on the road again and flying along. Another problem I've found os that I have a slight coolant leak, but I'm not too worried about it because I planned on replacing the radiator with a Mishimoto unit and replacing the coolant hoses with a silicone set
