What's on your xmas wishlist?

X-mas is just around the corner. What's on your wishlist?

Mine:
-JCW exhaust
-Body kit
-2 new R90 Anthracite wheels (since I managed to scrape both front wheels)

Not sure if I'll get anything but maybe I can sacrifice a LV or Gucci bag and get it for myself.

I don't know much about cars so I asked my boyfriend what more can I do to make the exterior look great. So he suggested the first two items. I would love to get something that'll make it go even faster but he's against that. Doesn't want me to have a fast car. Then again, I don't know why he bought me the mini then.

The only two MINI things on my list are the Detailer's Paradise Porter Cable/Pad set with the case, and the boot mat w/extender.

Jinsun,
Not that your MINI isn't lovely already, but maybe a splash of color?
Check out Cooperflags and Aesthetic Creations for some inspiration.

Me? I want a pony.

He trusts you just a little bit...just kiddn...he's being protective of his most important asset...YOU!

Small stuff...try the M7 splitter, Ram Intake, an Aero or JCW wing, auxiliary lamps, wheels/tires, lowering suspension...all these items doesn't necessarily make your Mini go faster but will definitely make it look "Cooooool"...

Or go big with the factory Aero kit...or...wait for ours...

I was hoping my mini would be here by Christmas, but now it doesn't look like it will happen. Some kind of back up at the VDC may stall deliveries all over. Hope not, but probably will. Anyhow, maybe a late Christmas will be in order this year (or next!). MCSc PW/G, prem, sport, cold weather, dark green leather, anthratice R99's Its my retirement and I'll motor if I want to!!
