A Must Have....New MINI Product

Feel bad when you can't return a wave? Do you feel guilty when there, in an oncoming MINI, a fellow Motorer half hanging out of his or her MINI, sporting a big grin giving you a big thumbs up and you've got your mocha grande frappa yappacino in one hand, and your Whalen in the other and you just can't get that return thumbs up out the window in time? That's a bad feeling folks.
Well, experience shame no more fellow MINIacs because now there's a way to show your thumbs up 24/7/365! MiniMaxx Digital Products brings you the "Thumbs Up Dashboard Digit" Slap it up on the dash and you've got full time response. No more embarrassing "I didn't see you" acts.
Get your's now, only $99.95. Coming soon, the JCW model, only $799.95

Perhaps the thumb nail can be the color of your MINI and the color of the Bonnet stripe.

You should see it live.....errr....in person, I mean. We got it at a science surplus store. There were a bunch of them in a box. Talk about freaky. They are so realistic down to the nails and creases in the plastic skin. It (edit USED TO get some looks there on the dash.

I've always thought it would be cool to have an open-palm "hand" attachment on the rear window wiper... then you can just flick on the rear wiper to wave after you drive past someone.
