My wife just got her grill badge holder, Black Aero side scuttle, and Oregon metallic PINK "O" Decals.

Next going to install the JCW Spoiler we got, just need to get the Glue for the spoiler.

She already has a list of other things she want done. Tint the windows, JCW black grill surrounding, and Alta cat-back exhaust.

I have had my Clubman for almost 2 months now and finally have a moment to share my pride and joy- first Mini and likely not my last.


It's difficult to convey the matte black checkered roof, but let me tell ya, it's sweet.

Thanks. I had the dealership (MINI of Dallas) use their graphics company to apply vinyl tiles before delivery. It ended up matching the checkered interior perfectly and I didn't even plan that.
I had a friend ask if they were solar panels- haha! I wish it ran on high octane solar power.

This is Bean..... He is a 2009 Clubman. I just had the stripes put on on Friday September 14th. I am thinking I now need body color roof and C-Panels. Thoughts?

^^^I'd leave the roof and do the C-Pillars and the taillight/bumper accents body colored. The roof goes with the theme.

Good to know, I'd like to add more swag in the future and having someone come to my place is definitely more convenient.

Picked it up the first week of August. This is my second MINI (my first was an '07 MCS that was too unreliable to keep after 50K miles). Took this pic the morning after I brought it home:



Haven't done a thing to it other than drive it back and forth to work thus far. I'm looking forward to doing some suspension and breathing mods, though.

Here's the other toy, which I took on a multi-state rally for charity a couple of weeks ago. Hope that sufficiently explains the stickers. :D
