Beautiful, ClubDal! Especially love the Pace wheels (We couldn't justify what they were charging for them , plus were worried about the possibly rougher ride of the 17's.). How about some shots of the interior?

(Hope Sapphire is doing well following her tooth extraction. )

Obviously since JCW doesn't make their own exhaust in house, does anyone know if Borla makes it for them?

Looks a lot like Borlas, just wondering.

Thanks,

Mark

PS. Looks great btw.

I've attached a few shots of the back. I'm still waiting for a good sunny day to get some better shots...I got it washed up last weekend, but the sun didn't cooperate long enough to get good shots!

I chose the Black Punch Leather, Piano Black, Dark Grey Color Line, Chrome Line, and most importantly the Antrhacite Headliner. (So it's a little dark in there lol). I'll post pics when I get some taken!

Laser Blue/Silver is an EXCELLENT choice. Best of luck in your configuring!

Thanks, 3DogDepot . With the wheels, I was already getting the other two items in the Sport Package -- so I just splurged! I do love them. I'll get some shots of the interior soon!

(Thanks for the wishes! She made it through the surgery beautifully! I ended up taking her in the Mini -- just had to do some jerry-rigging so she could ride up front. She's doing a lot of sleeping still - but she's starting to show signs of returning to normal as of this morning.)

Interior Shots

OK, I tried to get a few interior shots today...and this is what I came up with! The colors aren't all too true, but you get the idea.

Well, it's been a long wait since I ordered on March 26th, but he's finally arrived! In the next week or two, Bellamy gets the new JCW black grille and trim, as well as 16" gunmetal Rota RBs . . .

More pics in my gallery.

looks good! ... had to do a double take to notice the difference. it looks good with your black stripes ... matches better.

I preffer the chrome myself ... simply because i am an old school chrome freak from American cars and feel that not many cars have them around anymore.
heck, I could not think of one right now that does.

My MINI, two months old but not shown here yet

I've posted before and have a gallery, but I wanted to try to get my MINI into the forum directly. I'm trying to see if the upload works with my 110kb size. It doesn't show in my Preview Post Mode, so if this is not working, kindly ignore it. I don't know how to get it in here from a URL, so I am attaching it.
I want to show the interior of the car especially.
Can anyone tell me where I find the info on "joining" the Hot Chocolate Owners Club?
