I too like the rails and sincerely hope that a retro fit comes to you and the other 2008 owners!
I'm 99.9% sure they put them on after shipping. I know my dealer put my antenna and all the others they got in on. My antenna also looks the same with it off as the one above.

Thanks for the PM. $5 to the charity of your choice - or maybe Mr. Ray's therapist?

Mr. Ray:

If it's any consolation, Inskip doesn't have a Certificate of Origin yet, so I can't actually buy the car for a few days . . .

Thanks. I already have a stubbie from PS MINI (Puget Sound) so good to know that I did not buy something I did not need.

Thanks, Duncan, I have matched and added to your donation, so your win went to Pasado's Safe Haven today, an animal rescue organization that also has a mobile spay station.

Mr. Ray do we need to pass the collection basket for a therapist? Any news on your MINI?!

See if we can borrow some search and rescue dogs. Don't expect any news till next week at this point.
Might be quicker to order another car!

Coopdy: Good call. Thanks.

Mr. Ray: Lucky for you Coopdy decided to contribute toward having somebody else's snipped.

I ordered a super-shorty from Alta this morning, right after placing my order for the group-buy toggle stickers from Aesthetic Creations. Can't take her home without activating the Sonar and Missiles!

Yes thats the new Baby fresh off the truck it will be ready Monday!
It arrived with a minor error from the factory they installed the wrong gas door. I believe the S is supposed to have a chrome gas cap for some reason mine dosent and the one next to it does. Also do you know if its supposed to come with a jack with the run flat tires that was also missing.

Actually they have 50 cars they need to get off the lot by Tuesday night, something to do with the first of the month and bank intrest.
They worked overtime on Saturday and are willing to come get me rather than wait till Wednesday when I could get a ride there. Friday they told me they had 3 cars that were their's for demo and Saturday @ 4:pm they were down to one left. People that were comming into buy couldn't believe that everything was sold and they had to order.
