I'm up north on Lake Conroe. Be sure to attend the HMMS meetings! Go to the MetroplexMini site and scroll down to the Houston section.

See you there!

New MC with dogs

Picked up my new SS/B R56 MC yesterday. Found a dog kennel that fits the boot and our two yellow labs jumped in for a trip to the park. The dogs may look cramped but they are buddies and are used to the two of them squeezing into a single kennel. Note the MINI Universal Boot Protector under the kennel.

You made quite a trek south. Heceta Head is always lovely. For the rest of you, Oregon's most photographed lighthouse is on the left side of the first photo.

Astro black would probably be harder to keep clean.

I'm planning on the grill surround blackout. How are you doing the headlights, gas cap, door handles and tail lights? Are there parts available or are you applying vinyl over the chrome?

NICE, Dan!!! Lowering makes a HUGE difference, doesn't it?

I've finanally been Web Spoked (got the R98's I ordered with the Sport Package, but didn't recieve). So I figure I get to post another pic, too:



...oh and the Alta stubby is new... as well as the iPod connector (not that you can see that part).
