Just started messing with HDR... I just made a real quick hdr from one exposure, non RAW mode, with a trial software. I think I'm gonna register, or find another software so that I can get rid of the watermarks... Then I need to get a camera so I can start taking pics in RAW mode...

Side Stripes were bought on E-bay. There is a vendor that makes them. Don't know his name, but you can look up Mini accessories etc and he uses a picture of a blue Mini with the Cooper S.
Cost $40.
I installed the stripes using the enclosed instructions.

Here are a couple more pics of Reg, after I gave him his first bath (still need to do that first OCD detail, though, when I have more time). He got his driving lights on Tuesday. Didn't occur to me that now that they're installed I can't release the grill to install my grill badge holder. D'oh! Put his valve stem caps on, too.
Looking down the roof: (though from another angle, I can see some swirls)


UJ valve stem covers:


With the driving lamps:


Down the driver's side:

I actually purchased the black grille trim to add to mine, but I was worried it wouldnt match with the rest of the chrome and the white roof/bonnet stripes/mirrors. That picture has convinced me that i have something to do next weekend.

Thanks

Freshly tinted windows and new black wheel and tires. I just love the look of black wheels on most Mini's. Just my 2 cents... Name:  005.jpg

Well

The grill is part of the factory hypersport aero kit and the wheels are ATS DTM 17x7.5 42mm offset.
