Just joined the club. Hoping to meet everyone at the next meet.

I just got a pepper white cooper S and loving it.

However, I did manage to run into the curb and ding my black wheels. Is there any way to fix this? I'm thinking black nail polish.

Thanks.

I've attached a picture of the car in the garage. I'll have better pictures later.

I love pepper white MINIs, beautiful car you have. Sorry about the wheel, just leave it for character reasons. I think the paint will be too hard to match.

Congrats & Welcome. Love the PW/B....sorry about the curb rash. Any reputable wheel shop & maybe even your local dealer can touch it up for you.

Well, given that we're not supposed to start until 10:00am, getting back for a wedding at 2:00 might be tight. Probably the best thing you could do is post your question in the "Mark Your Calendars" thread that's pinned at the top of the page or send it via PM to Doug @ American Mini Mates. He's the organizing whiz behind the whole thing, and could probably give you a better idea of time.

Hope that helps...

Mike

The run usually last about an 1 hr to 1 1/2 hrs. We will probably leave the starting point about 10:30. So you are looking at noonish for getting to the winery. Then it's all up to you how long you stay. The raffle usually takes a bit of time also. It may be tight for you depending on where you live in St Louis.
