Nice MINI, cool photo.


Very interesting, where are you located? I assume that's a parking garage? :smile:

Looks very "industrial". :smile: :smile:

Welcome!

Is that the factory rack? I have an '03 Jet Black MCS and was thinking of adding one, especially after seeing those awesome photos. But I don't want to spend what they ask, so if yours are after market please let me know what kind.

Beautiful MINI by the way.

I was thinking of going with black wheels.

Thanks for the compliments!


The roof rack is made by "Thule", I liked the design better than the oem style and wasn't crazy about the idea of the oem one drilling into your roof, this one I can take off when I want to leaving no holes. It is a bit pricey for everything, but I had a friend working at our local ski/snowboard shop to give me a great deal!

They're 17". They're pretty cheap too, they're ASA AR1's (made by BBS) on tirerack.com for $179.00 a piece.


I like them, but I like changes, so i'll be getting new wheels for next spring (so keep an eye out on NAM's marketplace for a used set of ASA AR1's come fall )


I'll have to take some new shots of my car and wheels soon, I'll post them up.

More than the car, I guess you're into photography. I suppose very nice technique and camera are required to capture these pretty images. Thumbs up.

I try, I always been into cameras growing up, since I'm alittle older now with a decent job, I bought a digital rebel and have been playing around with it.

Thanks for the compliments!
