Looks sharp. I want to do an A Panel decal, but I don't know what to do with mine.

Try this website...www.minimotoringgraphics.com
It might give you some ideas.
They can produce custom decals for you.
I am trying to figure out how to balance the rear with the front by adding a custom decal of some sort.
Hope you find something sweet!

Did a nice exterior detail today. Only took about 3 hours, compared to the usual 4 hours it took me with my R50.

Process:
Wash, Clay, Polish (Amigo), Wax (Epic).

Looks good and good products! Might have taken less time without the roof?

Thanks. The lack of a roof helps, but another advantage is not having to tape off around all the plastic trim, as it is now painted.

One week old. Best cash for clunker deal ever! Triple black R57. Only options are cold weather, arm rest, multi-function leather wheel, and Bluetooth/iPod. Added the mirror caps and silver stripes this week. Since it's not an S you really need every one of those 6 ratios!

Oh, and add me to the long list of those that picked up their new MINI with almost 50 psi in the tires. Almost lost all my fillings before I figured it out.

My customer's car that was delivered last week. Mach V installed the Rota's and the Cross Coilover suspension. Looks sweet if you ask me.



Where did you get those wheels and it appears that they fit over the Brembo Brakes, is this true?
