Here's mine! just got it about a week now
09 S with 51k on it. There's an annoying rattle noise, i heard it might be the timing chain tensioner, so i'm taking it back to get it checked out! i hope its nothing serious! (no warranty =[[)

Ask them about your hood scoop too, it looks warped from the heat of the turbo. they might fix that even if your not under warranty.

LOL, yeah the roof setup isn't exactly ideal for the track. We ran the Monster Mile at Dover Speedway a few weeks ago too. Seeing a roof basket on a NASCAR track was pretty funny. My wife was in the back seat flipping out about how fast we were going...

Joe, I think all of our wives were terrified. When we pulled off the track I had to say "it's okay, you can let go now".

I like the white roof on your Sterling Silver Clubman. Its the first one I have seen that way. I have the same color car but with a black checkered roof and black stripes.

The roof looks so freaking cool. On the other hand, it raises a question: how the heck will you wax the roof without wax residue clinging to it?

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

Any pictures of a dark gray with silver roof/pillars? I'm looking at one and I'm really iffy about the combination.

IMHO, thats one of the sharpest looking combos out there. (Although the configurator wont let you build it that way anymore.)

Looks good, but i preferred the silver. It went well with your roof and c-pillars.

with Roof racks installed- happy the OEM rack cleared the Rails... prefer this style over the rail crossbars (not as high). would've removed the rails if it didnt leave 10 holes in my roof ..

I agree. It's not an instant hit in my mind, that i expected when i got them done. But its growing on me. I'm thinking of painting the calipers red and maybe painting the c-pillars black. Keep the roof silver. Give it a sleeker look. I really need some 18's like yours though. Thanks for your input. Hoping for that.
