KCinLex nice looking R59. If I had known LITTLE APPLE had this, i wouldn't have purchased my 17 club miata in June. Waiting a few more weeks for my R59 JCW to get to me.

Where did you get the sequential side markers and union jack taillights?
I haven't' seen the sequential side markers before. These are the taillights I like also, are they plug and play?

The side markers came from Amazon. Plug and play and no codes.
It took me a moment to figure out how to connect them, as there are no instructions. Turns out that they plug into the bulb socket, not the plug behind the bulb...
The taillights I bought through my business from a wholesaler/manufacturer that apparently doesn't sell retail. Took a long while to find them. I didn't want to spend the money on the KillAllChrome or SMPS2012 ones from the UK as they would have been about $500-600 by the time they got here. And ECS always seemed to to be out of them. And occasionally Outmotoring seems to have them for $450 or so plus shipping. Aliexpress is filled with the cheap ones that don't have the smooth sequential action. These are high quality with a really smooth turn signal action and proper differentiation between brake lights and taillights. And also no codes thrown.
I'm trying to talk with the manufacturer and my business bank to be able to order in bulk to have a bunch of sets on hand so that people can get them cheaply (like $375 shipped). If the bank says no on the bulk order, then I'll have to recommend the UK ones. Originally I tried to get ECS, Outmotoring, and MiniMania to stock them though this manufacturer, but that never seemed to go anywhere.
Thanks for the quick reply. I also have the same issues as you with the tail lights. It is even more expensive for me as I am in Canada and the exchange hurts me big time. My wife is putting in an order with Amazon soon so I will piggy back the side markers on her order.
PS If you are able to get them for the $375 range to sell, let me know.

Looks like the tails will be between $329 and $349 depending on what the final shipping/customs cost is going to be. I'll let everyone know as soon as I get them here.

Shouldn't be spending on this right now but really tempting...
I love the design of the union jack yet I'm not of British decent. I always felt conflicted about buying pair of these...
bilstein pss10 B16, also on 215/45/17 Yokohama A052 which not only fill, but also eat the arches a little.
I had my geometry set up on midlife Ad08r so they gave a little more clearance, only GP 2 camber, need plates for serious track time.
some Air gap whenever I’m in a straight line and not cornering as hard

You know what, I'm seriously considering this... Yes, keep us posted!
Since getting my car back I've replaced the read badge which was damaged (somehow) and covered over with a sticker. I've also installed my personalised plates. The rear of the car is the most heavily modified. The most immediately visible change is the fixed wing painted in chilli red, and to complete the mean, sporty look the GP2's diffuser kit is on the car. To go with the GP style aero I've added the rear badge, as I like symmetry and didn't like that nothing was opposite the JCW badge. There's a little R59 badge under the GP, this is from Etsy and I filed it to a matching angle. Lastly, the OEM shadowline rear light clusters look a lot nicer on the car than the original ones with the chrome inside them, but I didn't apply the surrounding trim as the dechroming only really suits lighter-coloured Minis.
