well, these came with the car part of the sport package with optional 17: wheels, they are 17" mini web spoke $500

 

Here are pictures of my new MINI Cooper S. I picked the car up on Wednesday but haven't had good picture taking weather until today. No mods yet.

 

NIce Car!!! I love the interior color choice!

J

 

+1 that color combo is great!

 

installed some coilovers this afternoon

 

Thanks! The red leather interior was my biggest worry. I knew I liked the Black Lounge Leather, but I wanted to break up the White and Black with a third color. I'm really happy with the results!

 

mmmmmmm

i wish the price wasnt so high tho, I have to settle for the H&R springs at some point in the future

 

the red leather really sets the car off. great choice, mate

 

you may be better just saving up to get the coilovers. the stock dampers aren't made to work with shorter springs so after about a year they will probably be blown and you will have to replace them.

 

I'll second that motion. That was my other choice of interior scheme. I almost went for it and love every on I've seen since.

 

hmmmm well thats not good news...i wish they took away the R56 wheel gap

 

+2 thats pretty cool! 1st time I've seen that color combo, very unique!

 

Got rid of my wheel gap at the Dragon also...... here's a couple of pictures of the new Canadian edition!

 

just got some pictures uploaded from MOTD this year....i had a blast with everyone and it was really nice to put a face to the name...

i got my viper stripes installed with the red pin, carbon fiber dash, helix short throw, tinted my tails ruby red, red belt line (which from this day forth is known as the BenjiLine), tinted the sunroofs 5%...and i think thats it (its been a long weekend and im pretty tired still)

here are some pictures. hope you enjoy!

Oh no! DUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Nice look! What did ya end up using to kill the gap?

 

i think he said he went with H&Rs and a 19mm rear sway but correct me if im wrong.....all i know is that its a great ride and feels fantastic when gripping rt28

 

H&R Springs, added a 19mm rear sway bar. To quoth Borat - "Veeeerrry Niiiicee!"

 

Just picked up a 08 MCSa, Chili Red/White with JCW kit! Future plans include white bonnet stripes, grille lights and some better wheels (17" or 18"). This car is so much fuuuunnnnn!!

 

oops..double post

 

I went with the Royal Canadian Air Force edition still a little high flying (pre-Eibach install)

 

Here she is, my 08 MCS.

I LOVE THIS CAR!

 

Beautiful car GemsCoop. Enjoy!

 

Here's Mine

 

it's been awhile since i've posted a picture of my 07 Lightning blue MINI Cooper S. since the last time i've posted i've almost completed the blacken out of the chrome, still need to do the beltline, and i've put new rims on it today.

so here is the update picture (not a good shot and the MINI is a little dirty, needs to be washed)
