new gauges... Lyle does some nice work. I did some extra work to them, just for my own sake, but overall they're great.

M3this... lookin real clean, and i agree with the roof, took away from the clean look. lookin good.

Fatman, if you don't mind me asking, how much did the JCW body kit cost you? I've never actually seen it on a justacooper. Looks awesome!!

^i think it's a ton of labor, the whole rear has to come out in order to get the headliner out of the C pillar, i believe. It'd be best to buy and install yourself. Not difficult or scary labor, just expensive to have done at the dealer.
