Thanks! I especially like how the door panels and other interior trim pieces are still black, not red like every other MINI I've seen with the redwood interior.

hey everyone. just picked up my first mini 3 weeks ago. love it so far. i do a lot of autox, and some track days down here in Florida. its an 08 Cooper S. got it with 43k on it.
only things i have done to it is hankook RS-3 tires and tint. the rest was from the previous owner. mostly just plasti-dip for the exterior, and an alta intake and accceport tuner. plans are to do KW variant 3 coilovers, hotchkis 25mm sway bar, camber and toe links, and front camber plates as soon as i sell my old track car and trailer.
here is a pic, hope you like it.

almost positive they are 7" wide. if i hit a big bump too fast they rub a hair in the back. damn squishy stock suspension, lol. as long as i am careful they are just fine.
