Hey, how come my MA didn't tell me about those bonnet accesories? Do those come from the factory or are they aftermarket?

Welcome to NAM and that is one nice MINI you have there.

Hello all! (all tho this is a stupid time to post where you are only 3.05pm here!)

cheers for the exclent welcome and no them bonnet accessories arnt from the factory all tho i wish they was then ill be skint buying new mini's! mind you i wouldnt want a 2nd hand mini with that option extra!

cheers! the mini was striped back to standard before i sold it and ive managed to sell every thing apart from the boot install its nice but no one wants it!

and Project 'Ring' i will keep yous up dated! as ive just managed to get JCW Racing to do the Interor (Race Seats, 6 point Harness and im thinking of a rol cage but the insurance company will have a ball if i did!) so it all kicks off in July when i recieve the motor! CANT WAIT!!!!
