I got my MINIAC plates today! Pretty quick considering it was supposed to take 6-10 weeks.

My Mini got to wear it's normal plate for a whole 3 days before getting the new one.

Super pic. Thanks for sharing

Also like the plates.

We are debating about getting the personal plates for our Mini.

Yeah, that is a really cool shot !

BTW, have you ever considered getting a rearview mirror cap to match your side mirror caps ? Would be awesome, IMHO.

I had ordered KISMYS and thought better of it in regards to the more frequent ticket probability and potential road rage challenges (ok, I'm chickenshit.) So turned them in for NANOKAR. If I had thought of it, I would have seriously considered WHATAN S!
How'd you get 211WMP?

I acutually had WHAT N S for about 6 months but I got a lot of really clueless comments from people. so I went to CACHMY S. Now I have 3 tickets and the last cop said "By the way, I caught your S" haha. I tried to explain that it was for the other Mini's, but he wouldn't hear of it!!! haha. So to end the confusion, it's gonna be WHATAN S. The other one I was considering only because I'm Allblackmini andI tried to get was MY BLK S, But it wasn't available. I wanted so bad to be able to say..."Hay, take MY BLK S to the store etc... " haha but it just wasn't in the cards. (Probably a good thing)

As far as the 211 WHP, Drive-train mods include:

Alta- ColdAir, 15% Pulley, 2% Crank, Alta- Cat-back (Minus the resinator- Nice crackel, a little loud) Shark- Injector, Alta- AirDiverter (Stock-intercooler) and Last but not least Thumper Performance Head- Just the head, I gained 25 Whp. I just Dyno'd the car this past Sat, Dec 9, 06. Uncorrected 222 WHP, but with SAE correction, 211.

I get a kick out of watching people in my rear-view mirror (at stop lights) try to decypher what "UBER" means.

I usually get asked "what does it say? u bear fan?"

Up close


From the front.


And from the back.

Cheers,

We got ours

We have FN2MTR (fun to motor) on our MINI. What's great is watching folks at traffic lights trying to figure out our plates - we have them on Parrothead license plates so most folks are thinking FN means fin as in fins to the left...
