Just after de-badging




Beltline Blackout trim on



And finally tinted... 20% all around





The rest of the vinyl is arriving tomorrow... I hope the heat gun gets here too.

Congrats Hellion - I saw some new JCWs being offloaded at MINI Crowfoot yesterday. I guess you got yours.

Let the modding begin!

Beautiful ride!

Those are easily my favorite OEM wheels. I'm not sure I'll be able to justify the cost though. So many other great goodies to get!

I'll tell ya this, I love the way they look but they are a MFer to keep clean. Well worth the extra effort though.

I posted pics a few months back. Since then, I have added JCW suspension, JCW grille trim and silver stripes to exterior of my dark silver 2008 MCS.

Here is a couple of new pictures:

Very nice, I'm flattered, nice to know I have twin brother out there. I actually got my idea from another person on this board too.

He's here!









English Oak interior with cream color line and chrome trim

Finally, Gumby. Gumby's been with me since I got my first car almost 25 years ago and has ridden with me ever since.

I love the interior, but most of all, I love Gumby. For some reason, that was not only nostalgic for me, but super HILARIOUS!!!

^^^ Will Gumby be his name? I know the color scheme may not fit it, but the MINI will probably be the car you want to keep with you for a long time so it may fit

That's a JustACooper right? Maybe you should name it SlowPokey. LOL. Just joshing with you. A little intra-family ribbing never hurt anyone

Has anyone installed the front of the JCW aero kit on a Clubman?

Well the justacooper is more unique since EVERYONE has an S, even my friends grandma

The justacooper is for those of us that can evoke the power yet keep our operational cost lower
