Thank you! Here's the other thing. The graphics are actually laser precision cut plexiglass. The red fill is decal, placed underneath the slightly raised black plexiglass. The plexiglass surface is cool, the way it lusters in the changing light and sun.

Hi everyone! This is my first post, kinda getting my feet wet. I've been in the subaru community since 2002, just purchased my first Mini used, 2007 MCS w/ the JCW package, previous owner had pretty much every mod available. Here is a pic from FB:



For now its stock, but looking to ditch the sunroof graphic and paint the roof/spoiler/mirrors glossy black.

nice. i actually bought this MINI from the subaru dealer; i'm pretty close to them after buying 4 subarus from them. had a 2003 WRX, 2006 STI, 2008 STI and bought the wife a Tribeca, now I dont have any of those cars lol. I tend to trade cars every 1.5 years. If i had to do it over again, I'd get a 2005 STI and mod it.

My wife is buying a 2010 Cooper and I'm ready to not have a car payment for a while I've had a classic BMW obsession for quite a while now, I'll probably go that route.

Since it would have to be my DD, I'm thinking either an e30 or e36 convertible (ok, the e36 may not be considered classic lol)
