I'm getting extreemley antsy now that I'm almost at the end of what has seemed to be an endless wait! I've got over 200 posts on this site without even having my MINI yet!

Bet it's all dirty again since this pic.
Sorry for the delay in responses. My local ISP had some weird problem that prevented me from reaching NAM. It's been going on since Saturday, but is now (obviously) resolved.
I was taken over to the service bay area by the Service Manager on Saturday (thanks Rob!) to see the car as it is being 'assembled' It'll be the only pictures of it in the factory-delivered condition (the JCW airbox was already in...)
The JCW Airbox is in. The injectors are in the white cardboard box in the upper right.

Steve: Very, Very Sweet! How soon until they finish? EDIT: Nevermind....I read the rest of your signature....I was distracted by the MINI!
ururk: Do you provide mobile washing service? ...in Miami?
Mamarazzi: I'm on the boat, baby! Getin' sun on the Lido deck and checking out those sexy 6 series convertibles . I'm scheduled for Charleston on Monday.

Very sharp! How does one mount a euro plate on the front of the Aero kit bumper? I have an Irish EU plate coming but I can't figure out how to mount it when it arrives..... here in Pennsylvania we do not have a front license plate............... if ya can aim me in the right direction I would appreciate it...

If for some reason you want to remove the whole thing in the future, there's a number of plate-hole-plug kits available on-line that will give you two 'buttons' of color-matching material to cover the two small holes.
My $.02
your mileage may vary...

Yes, hoping that the AIDA will not be seeing any of those. We just got through Katrina last night on it way by. The eye was about 35 miles west of us. It's still real windy outside right now. Luckily it was only a Tropical Storm and we had winds around 50+ with some higher gusts. Wind started about 8:30 last night and we are still getting some real good gusts right now. Not very much damage here. Trees down, some power out, small sheds gone, that sort of thing. Power was out at work until noon so I had a nice slow morning.

Looks like I'm in the same boat as you were in the beginning. The AIDA sailed yesterday without my MINI being loaded. 250 others were loaded but not mine! Check my VIN late yesterday and they removed the booking for the AIDA and booked it on the OTTELO leaving in another 8 days and since this one was going via CANADA on it's way to the US it will take 14 days to get to the east coast. Now to make matters worse, I check on it this morning and I have found the the VIN is no longer registered with W&W. I guess my MINI will have to swim on it own.

Oh... that's just one day after AIDA
