You Don't Know Jack! (2012 MCS "Jack" Project Lawg)

So this is my official Project Log for Jack, my '12 MCS. I'll update this thread regularly instead of posting new threads for individual mods.


I ordered Jack on November 4th. I picked the car up from Mini of Warwick on December 22.

Here's Jack's factory stats in a nutshell (in case I change my signature with all this info):

2012 Mini Cooper S. Spice Orange. 6 spd. Cold Weather Package. Sports Package. Driving lights. Sport Suspension. Dual Panoramic Sunroofs. Xenon Adaptive Headlights. 17" Black Star Bullet wheels. Rear Foglight. Auto A/C. Piano Black Interior. Anthracite headliner. Harman Kardon audio. Chrome Trim Interior.




Now here is the fun stuff. I bought a bunch of light mods before I even got Jack.

  • Out Motoring Stubby Antennae (installed)
  • Black Aero scuttles (installed)
  • Aftermarket customized Viper stripes in matte black (installed)
  • John Cooper Works carbon fiber hood scoop
  • John Cooper Works carbon fiber boot handle
  • Out Motoring rear bumper protector
  • GoMiniGo "No Holes" front plate bracket
  • Out Motoring Blackout belt line vinyl kit
  • Aesthetic Creations emblems
  • OEM black housing driving lights + grill and bracket mounting kit
  • K&N Air Filter
  • Winter wheels set - OEM 17" Conical wheels and Hankook snows.






Here is my newest photo. It shows my stripes, stubby antennae (sort of,) and scuttles.

As it sits right now:



Other future projects include tinting my side lens (in the scuttles), and blacking out all the exterior chrome.
