May I please include my '12 Coupe?

I was told about this group from a member of Bluegrass MINIs, and I'm really impressed by the MINIS I've seen here so far. I've owned my 2012 MINI Coupe Chili Red w/Silver top for just over 2 months now. No major mods planned so far, but I've gotten it's windows tinted and replaced the antenna with the sporty version.

May I please be allowed to join this group and hopefully I won't be the only Coupe owner to make this request.....

Thank You!

Thank you for accepting me into the CROC group, I love the way the red's look! I just have one question though, how do we go about getting a badge for our posts like the ones I see on your posts here? I really like the Red CROC logo and the ones with the CROC member number w/a pic of the vehicle as well.... Is it something we need to set up on our own or is it something the group provides for us? I'd love to use the badge as my avatar on the Kentucky Bluegrass MINI club site. Thank you for your help on this lil question.

Bird

What the heck? I thought I had joined, but I just check the list and I'm not there? Could someone back check and make sure I'm just not senile?

I looked at posts from before I bought the car until way after and didn't see me...


Oh well, if it turns out I didn't ask to join, I'd like to do so now... That's the 1 great thing about getting old and forgetful, you meet a bunch of nice new people every day...

It'd be nice to have #995...

Hello everyone!
I would like to join CROC. Bought my 06 MCS 1/30/12 and got rearended the same day. After being rebuilt she is my Phoenix. I can only ask "Why didnt I buy one sooner!?" I would also like to know where I can get the logo with the CROC and or a CROC signature banner.

Just did a few mods, Grill is PD, and I took off my stripes. I like it better with the stripes so they are going back on. Also put on some spec D halo headlights, Thanks to crazyIvan for the help

Is that a red pinstripe you put on or is the white stripe and a smaller white pin stripe with a gap? Where did you get them? I like it, nice MINI

It's a white stripe with a gapped white pin stripe on the side.

I just took some nice pics of Bird 66, the rims have been changed out, the windows have been tinted and I've swapped out the whip antenna for the sport model. I really think the window tint and new rims really make this Coupe look sporty as hell, but I am pretty bias I know.....
