Thanks! Yeah, if the light catches it right, there's a subtle red in the matte black stripes that can be seen, too...
You know, that's a really good point that I've never considered... two bikes AND the box at the same time. I bought the car off the lot and it didn't have the rails (obviously), and I've been envious of all of you with the factory rails ever since. I considered retrofitting the rails, and even thought about ordering a new built-to-order F54 JCW... just so I could get the rails!! Yeah... kinda nuts, hence still having the Thule setup. But your point is the first time I've thought of it that way and realized, "huh...yeah... there actually is another positive to this method." So thanks for that perspective! Though what's also helping is that about 6 months ago I added a little lift system in the garage... good for storage and I can take the rack system off or on in about 10-20 min... I *do* like the clean and minimal roofline without the rack installed. Will have to post pics like that some time soon...
Genius to have a pulley for the rack. You never have to remount the accessories to the bar. I’d have to put that on the tree above my spot. Putting the rack and accessories on and taking them off, moving them to and from storage is a pain. It’s always hard to clean around the rail, definitely ruins the lines but I don’t mind it for practicality with the accessories. Plus it’s there so can’t change that. I saw a countryman will an oem box/bars and 2 bike racks. I’m going to really need to play around
My new 2022 JCW Clubman in Rebel Green. Glad I was able to get one built before they cut out the H/K option.
Very happy with it so far and it’s my first MINI. Did a ton of research over the past 3 years looking for my next car, and once I test drove the JCW I was hooked. 1k miles in and still laugh most times I drive it around.

Congratulations and welcome to the MINI family! That's a beautiful Clubman!!

Reason: hyperlink tools seem to be misfiring?
How did you get a BRG IV JCW Clubman in the US?! I know it's an option in other parts of the world, but not in the US. That's the color I really want for the JCW Clubman if I order one.

Here's mine on BC Racing coilovers, Megan upper and lower rear control arms, Racing Dynamics FMIC and IC piping, JB4, Burger intake, black door handles, tint, functional hood scoop. Probably going to do some sort of turbo inlet once I can verify it'll fit the 300hp motor. Just want more turbo noise.
Where in the U.S can you buy that kit? I'm expecting my 2023 F54 JCW to arrive in the next couple weeks here in south Florida and I would like to get one.
