thanks. i like 'em when they're darkened with brake dust...give it a few days

pretty happy with the vinyl, looks like paint, no maintenance issues, other than initial cost for them can't complain.

 

Heres my new Cooper, five days old...

 

VERY NICE!! Beautiful wheels!!

 

That looks nice, but then I'm a bit partial to red/black. I just added the chrome filler cap to my Mini and now I have standard Cooper that looks like an S, but gets on average 34-35mpg (Californial gas, which is corn-laiden).

That's a nice lookin' Coop!Now for some springs and your good to go...for now!

 

Yep. I'm going to get the Alta springs soon!

 

That's my new 08 MCS.

Great choice for wheels. Makes the car!!!

 

I think you're right. Very handsome combination. But what are Drew's wheels?

 

what size are these? 16 or 17?

 

my cooper D

 

Thanks, they are Kosei K1-R's. Discontinued in this size, maybe in all sizes now actually. I need to get some center caps for them.

Thank you, Drew. Anytime I really like a rim, it's inevitable that it's been discontinued. One last thing, when you get a minute: are your rims 18s, as appears to be the case? Thanks!

My 2007 DS/B MCS

Hello from Finland

2008 Cooper S

 

I'm not a big vinyl fan, but you ought to send this last picture to Asthetic Creations, Mighty Stripes or Lyles Vinyl Styles, that building reflection is shaped just right/sitting just right for a really sharp side-stripe.

I always figured a Mini needed to have the contrasting roof, but the Laser/lighter blues & the reds look so good with the matched roof

 

Here is a picture of coops, just picked it up from Morristown Mini, they were great, Jerry was the guy I dealt with. I have ordered Alta Downpipe, Cat Back, and Privat Netz wheels for Coops. Tints are getting done today...Will update with pics ASAP. NAM is a GREAT Forum, I learned a helluva allot from NAM.

 

Great color combination, Congrats and welcome to NAM!

 

Sweet...I should be picking up my MCS from Princeton next week.

Just curious what percentage tints are legal in NJ? Also, how much can I expect to pay (including sunroof)? And any idea how long the process takes (would I have to drop it off or can I wait)?

 

I dont think any tint is legal for the 2 front door windows in NJ, I did 50% all around.

 

Including sunroof? How much did that run you?
