Love it!

MzLogan11 nice pics! Great interior shot and love the oak interior, I will probably wish that I had chosen that after all.

Enjoy!

MZLogan11, Very nice. I was at my dealership today and was admiring a Clubman just like yours. That's a great color combo! Congrats and do you really need a reason to go for a ride?

by the way how do you get the pictures to show up big in the post? I attach them but the show as small images that have to be clicked to make big.

Not too shabby for a cell phone! Your color combo makes clubbie look like a bulldog. Nice wheels!

Very dramatic RichBrowne -- looks like my pending Clubman but definitely more dramatic and those are cool wheels!

SaltnPepa (love the name), great color combo and the tint really makes it sharp!

I saved them in my gallery as a little larger size files, rather than compressing them fully for the web. When I paste them in, they come out full size. You're using the 'insert image' tool, right?

I had been using the atachment function but the insert image was the key thanks.
Now does the picture make her boot look big?

The body inset is actually vinyl wrapped. The shade is off, a touch, to the body color - but, it lets me get an idea of the look prior to painting.

Wrapped: tail lights, reflectors, third brake light, body color wrap on the inset panel, belt line trim and a smoke on the headlight lens. Done by Lyle: http://www.lylesvinylstyles.net/

Super guy - excellent work.

Huber Optics ceramic window/sunroof tint. Very nice, blocks just the right amount of intense light - stuff is kinda pricey.

Cross coil overs, rear links from Alta, Alta 22mm rear bar, 15mm inserts in the front, 7mm inserts in the rear - Big ol' Brembos - stops, well, I got to kiss the windshield - wild.

More to come.
