Hello folks! My name is Daniel, just purchased my first R53, an '04 with 83k miles on her, last week. Previous owner lived down a dirt road, smoked heavily and never cleaned her.

Took me seven hours to detail the interior, during which I took the dash completely apart to clean thanks to instructions I found on NAM.

I've been lurking here for a bit, and as a way to say thank you I'm posting a DIY on wheel painting, hopefully soon!

EDIT: Added a pic!

 

And for some reason I can't post a new thread, tells me "Post rejected to due a score of 50" or something similar.

Edit: Figured it out, post count wasn't high enough =)

 

Welcome to the addiction!!! Do you have a pic of your mini?

 

Welcome to mini. Can't wait for your wheel painting thread. I was thinking about painting a red pinstripe around the rim of my rim but idk yet

 

Welcome Daniel!
