R55 Show us your pictures of your R55 (Clubman) here
Thanks for the info bumgardnern - looks good, and I'll look forward to more interior shots. Many seem not to choose the standard dash but it looks great in my opinion - especially with your Astro Black...
Great timing eschantra - now we can all see how fantastic NFR looks with that black roof!

Thanks Eschantra, stunning! I agree LadyGodiva, if I choose the black trim and roof (which is how I am currently leaning -- wish I didn't have so long to wait and to keep rethinking EVERYTHING, lol)
, I will be getting the black bonnet stripes. I just don't think I'm cool enough for a car that good looking though...

Coopdy, if you think that particular
color combination is for you - go for it - and let your inner coolness shine through.
Seriously, though - we all have different tastes. A very close friend of mine has a beautiful CR MCS convertible with white racing strips on the front, red dash...and chrome bits in all the right places. I love her MINI, it's bright and eye catching and happy and love driving with her or, better yet, driving it myself, however I would not feel like "me" owning a CR MINI...just not my personal style.

Do you have any pics of it from the side?
No direct-on side shots. These are the most recent photos. 3/4 and straight on front. I'll be lowering the front a bit more soon

). I checked in with my MA on Sunday and they still can't place my order until October...but hey I just checked the calendar and we're almost in August so that helps.
Coopdy, Otra and William, thanks for the comments! The 'vette rocks, had her for three years now. I know what you mean about all the colors are beautiful, at first I never would've even considered Hot Chocolate but the ones I've seen on here are
We happened to get VERY lucky when ordering the Clubman, my Mini dealer told me that their allocation ran out and another three weeks would've pushed the delivery date back to around February or March of next year. That said, hang in there Coopdy, it's worth it in the end

Wet & Dirty.......But Now With Stripes
Well.....had my stripes added yesterday.
Extra wide Viper (to align with the edge of the barn door handles at the rear) with additional side pin.
The roof vinyl is a custom printed and laminated vinyl, created on the day to totally match the body colour paint

Thanks for the NFR pics Eschantra!
I have my NFR/Blk Clubby on order and real live car pics of it are super hard to come by. We went with the bonnet stripes and the ray cloth/leather combo, which I think is new, so no pics around of it at all...which is a bit troubling but we are taking a leap of faith. The black rims look sweet on the NFR. We didn't go that route but I like them a lot!
I totally agree with those who love all the colors but can't see themselves in some of them. I always love the Chili Red, Lightning Blue and Yellow MINI's when I see them, but they wouldn't feel like "me" to own one. That is why the whole "you-ification" idea is awesome....truly to each his own.

So the roof stripes are part of a roof vinyl graphic? Not just stripes running across your sunroof? Is that right? Is it perforated? How much light comes through.
thanks!
Factory Spoiler
Anybody have a picture of the factory spoiler on the Clubman? None of the pictures on this thread seem to have one, or am I missing something? (We have an '05 R50 and plan to add a Clubman.) Thanks!

I don't have a sunroof
....the vinyl is solid
Finally! Delivery Day
After much waiting here she is! Unfortunately, we're due to start a family vacation, so she'll have to sit and wait for us to come home before the wheels, sport stripes, clear bra and spoiler are added on.
Day 1 pics are in my gallery...
Phew - she's home!

Here is a link to a thread that specifically details some of his work/products.
I am unsure if this offends or breaks any forum rules, as this is a link to another board.....however, I do believe that this is allowed as it appears to have happened quite a lot in the roof rack thread.

I understand that he used to be an official advertiser on NAM...and I understand that he intends to re-instate this with almost immediate effect.
