Car is just about back to running condition. A lot of stuff replaced! Also, swapping out the old, worn out intake filter with a new one. Not a whole lot to show in pictures.

Update time!

It has certainly been a busy year! But, I am slowly making some progress on fixing up the Mini. I decided to change out the front grill.

New Grill:




And replacing the side markers since one amber marker was broke and causing a short in the running lights. So I found some LED smoked versions online and thought I’d give them a try.

Rears.

That new grill really set it off! Less blue is definitely better on the front.
