Hey, I live in Norwalk. That's not too far from San Gabriels.
Oh, and I'm in SCMM also.

Cool!!!! blacknblue

So how's your MINI look?
I have 2005 MCS with black racing strips on the Front and Back with white trim, 18" Evo wheels, Tinted window with a small Cooper S sticker on the Front and back of the window, I also have a small silver Alta stick on both side of the back side windows, a large John Cooper Challenge sticker on driver and passenger doors. Best of all a small 3” black antenna.

WOW, your car is pretty fixed up considering it's a brand new car.

My car's exterior is pretty much stock except for Chrome Line Exterior and 17" S-Lites. So far I've only done performance mods: GIAC chip, Alta Intake, Alta 15% Pulley, and DENSO IK22 plugs.

If I see you, i'll make sure i'll honk so are u going to bimmerfest? http://bfest.gripspeed.com

That is cool set up but I will have to wait till 2007 or after my warrenty are over before I can add Alta 15% pulley, Giac Chip, performance header, Borla exhaust, light weight aluminum flyheel, performance short shiftet,
Alta oil catch can, Silicone hose set, and body kit but I will need more cash for this.


Just sign up for the bimmerfest but the site didn't say any thing about the time and date of th event?

Depending on what you want to be involved in, you might consider either SCMM or c3 or both. We got lots of SCMM members in c3. (http://c3club.org)

Today was did a run up to Newcombs Ranch for lunch--with 8 MINI's in tow, we had a blast. I shot the whole run with my VacuCams--4 channel system. One MCS did suffer a torn runflat after hitting a rock, but because we had Coopers in the group, I'm one of them, I loaned her my spare, and we all helped change her tires and escorted her down the mountain. Great bunch of people. Our members come from all over---from Simi Valley, to PV, to Corona!

Funny thing is that we met 2 bikers who had recently purchased MINI's along the way who had heard about us, and were "dying" to join our club. That was really funny. I mean we pulled into the parking lot, and this guy comes up to me asking about how to join. LOL

Since we hosted the AMVIV II Kickoff dinner, we've all been exhausted, but we should be doing our next Detailing Clinic in May at HQ in Culver City. If you want to get your MINI shiny, and learn how to keep it that way, just watch our website for an announcement and come on by. It's free, and you don't have to be a member, although most people become members after one clinic.

Ohh oops sorry, check out http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=69 as well

Anyways, I figured the only thing that's being affected from my mods are the engine and S/C. Otherwise, my warranty should still be intact for other components.

By the way, not to be a racist or anything, but are u Asian?
