That innovate system is really nice

 

Ok got sound proofing done and the door panels back in and love my new courtesy lights😊

 

Nice, those are sweet

 

It is really coming together now the whole front bumper is put on and ready have a stencil I am making to paint in black on the inter cooler and have to put the rear bumper and wheels on and it is done!!!!

 

This is an awesome build

I love the detail and the Mini stencil is just putting it over the top!

 

ReallY digging the makeover

 

I had forgotten all about Airborne MINI

 

The intercooler is now stenciled and put in the car.😊

 

Made a lot of progress this week with late night and today it is officially totally put together and ready to be aligned and then driven!

 

 

very nice, looks like you added the GP rear bumper.

I am excited for the first drive.

 

I just added the inserts, it is he stock trim I like it better. I have put 40 mile on it so far and loving all of them it is such a better driving car. I will post more pictures and a video soon.

 

 

Supa clean!!

 

now you need a tune for all those mods!

 

Catch Me- I am wondering if you changed the original color at all or just over layered the original paint with the same color to clean up chips, scuffs, etc. I am thinking of doing something similar on my Indi Blue 2003 MCS and am wondering if it is worth the time and expense. I'd be interested in some more detail on what you did exactly color-wise and if you think it is worth it now that you have done it - is it a pretty dramatic improvement on the paint? The pics certainly look great but it is hard to tell given that it also looked pretty good before in the pics.

Appreciate any thoughts you have on this topic.

 

+1 super clean, its like a time warp to when the checkmate launched , but with mods

 

Thanks ECS.... Yeah it is awesome to drive it turned out exactly what I wanted to the T. The only thing I'd add at this point is a H-comp rear sway bar to finish off the handling mods.

 

What an amazing finish!
I bet your having a blast
Job amazingly well done !
Cheers

Also I'm interested in your LC1 setup.
I've run Innovate products and plan to in my current build.
Are you using the MXT-L in conjunction or standalone for information and tuning purposes?
Also how can I get my hands on one of those brackets?

 

Looks great

 

Welcome.

 

Are you planning to put the checkmate graphics on?

 

+1

 

It is actually a OT-2 Innovative OBDII sensor that logs and I can use the dash command app on my iPhone to log data and use it as some extra gauges.

 

I am planning on a hood stripe the shape of the original checkmate one that is a fade from solid to checkers, and on the rear quarter behind the door get a checkmate decal made in a cursive writing like the John Cooper decal. It should turn out cool.
