Haha! I'll be headed through on Tuesday. Got half way there...(if you don't count me being way too far south)... before I turned back for the day, ended up around Grafton Lake.

Yeah that would be a little south... that may be a nice area for some upcoming meets though.
Hard to tell what color that is DrSimmons...is that White?? Might seriously consider that one...IF it is!!
Not white, just the stock aluminum alloy color with MiniMania in black in the middle of the bar. I'm sure someone makes a white one or you would always paint it.
Check different ones and prices. I think this one was like $200. A lot for a bar. It was my 1st mod so I didn't look around much.
I'm with Albiecrazy, this site has drained me of a couple grand as well.
Fun but expensive. Hopefully, all that I've installed will last a good while.
Got $2200 of stuff sitting in my office waiting to be installed.
^DR, trying to figure out how to post pics with my iPad. ^Albie, just how much louder (meaner)? Is it louder while just idling and revving! Or louder revving? How much more HP do you think it added....giggle, giggle, giggle...
PM me your email and I will send some great pics I took of her on her adoption anniversary! She posed smack in front of our local cement plant...I thought it was pretty cool...
Hey there! Where did you get this badge? I'm a member of the Air National Guard and I'd LOVE to put one on my Mini. Please let me know where to get one.
I really haven't changed much of anything from stock, mind if I ask what did it for you?
Simplicity - Less is more
The color scheme is perfect I think. I'm a big fan of green and matched with the white roof, black lip, dark tint, and just the right amount of chrome pieces gives it a very nice touch.
I had my scheduled brake fluid "exchange" done this morning and also had them check everything out before I go installing my coils... they found a leaking motor mount and a leaking crank sensor o-ring, not too bad. I'll replace the motor mount before installing the coils and will probably do the o-ring once I get my pulley installed.
Looks good. Where did you get the R56? Did you just use stick on letters and numbers?
Thanks, This was really easy to do with a strong hair dryer to heat up the glue and some fishing line. Just be sure to mark everything so its straight if you replace it with something else. These were just letters and numbers from a local auto store.I had been thinking about it for awhile, and finally did it.
Thanks, This was a really easy Mod. All you need is a strong hair dryer to heat up the glue and some fishing line to remove the stock badge. Just make sure you mark where everything is so its straight if you replace it with something else. The letters and numbers were picked up at a local auto store. Been thinking about doing this for awhile and finally did it.
O and yes the letters for R56 were from a local Auto store. Very easy install ,but I like it. Sometimes I get the itch to do something so its nice to have little things to change while I wait for the big stuff. LOL
