R56 Please post pictures of your R56 here...
..just the opposite for me...I see many wheels that are very appealing...wish I had more disposable $$...actually I have 3 sets of wheels for the MINI..and just recently have had to hear comments from wife and mom: "3 sets of wheels - that's kinda ridiculous don't ya think?" ..me: "only ridiculous that I don't have overhead storage racks in garage for them.. yet"

BTW, nice photo shoot...your car looks awsome

do the sparco seats have airbags? or did you just re code it so that the warning light doesn't turn on... just curious.... cheers....
No airbag, I measured the resistance in the airbag and wired in resistors to the harnesses to simulate the airbag presence.

So what's the story on the headliner? Where did you get it? What's it made of? Etc... I really like it.
Also, I know you've talked about this before and that you plan to leave the lower grill out. Don't take this the wrong way, because your car is amazing, I just think it makes the front end look unfinished. Have you explored other options for that area?

I'm glad you got that the comment was all in fun...apparently others did not understand!!
Did that myself as well, bought the "headliner fabric" from joannes fabrics, spray adhesive and a little bit of time. doing 1 ft at a time it shaped nicely to the oem headliner.
