Your boyfriends fog light has an infection(condensation) Have him remove the fog lightbulb and leave it in the sun so it dries out

MTD's are never good(mini transmitted diseases)

Hahaha! I was wondering whether he had caught something as indicated by that light... He's so sleeping on the sofa tonight! Maybe these MINI threesomes should stop.

My first attempt at "lightpainting." Thought I'd share.

Latest incarnation of my ever changing 2009 JCW. Removed the M7 C-Wing and put the original spoiler back on. I had the challenge wheels powder coated flat back last week.

I am officially done with mods to this car.

Done for good? Really? Why?????

I really like the flat black wheels and it looks much better without the crazy spoiler IMO.

Finally got the BSH catch can and block off plug. It took forever to figure out where to mount it and how to run the hoses but I think the end result is pretty good.

My last MINI, Chili Red is much different than this Dark Silver, so I need to adjust.

I tried that once; the mod bug won! Love your car the way it sits right now though too.

Enough is enough. Anything else that I do externally and it may as well be a clown car.

As soon as I put the stock spoiler back on... I just said to myself WOW, that is much better and you know what I really like it stock.

I do like that new NM-Eng CF spoiler though.

I have considered driving down to Helix in Philly to have them install the OS Giken GT Clutch and LSD but that is another $4000.

I really think that I am done.
