Sorry, no pics! I was a little busy at the time. Plus I was worried that it would start raining again!
And it fit with the box!! Fortunately the box wasn't much bigger than the TV. Taking it out would have helped keep the one corner of the box from sitting on my shoulder as I drove home, though....
Nothing to mine, but the missus and I took her 2010 Justa, "Frau Blau", to the dealership and trader her in (the car, not the wife) for 2015, BRG Cooper hardtop (name pending).
Sorry for the crap pic. The weather has been less than perfect for photography around here.

no, i live in a apt. my buddy that has an airbrush business let me use his place and when i was done he cleared it for me and buffed it. i been airbrushing for over 20 years at malls, the beach and stuff but since i got in apt. 10 years ago i have to do big stuff at my friends if its for me, if i had my own place i could do stuff all the time.

I haven't seen custom air brushing on the hood of a Mini until now which is quite shocking given the Mini enthusiasts out there, I must say though it's look gorgeous!

Link to the thread Here. I just perform a compression test after using EPR or BG's Engine Performance Restoration, this **** works as described advertised! Say goodbye to the coked oil inside the oil feel line for turbo! Cylinder #1 gained 15 psi, #2 gain of 10 psi, #3 gain of 7 psi and no gain for #4. While this might not look like a serious gain on all cylinders consider the fact that my cylinders are much more even across the board. I wish I had someone to do a video recording me when I was draining my oil, it had black swirl mark in it that looked like marble tile in the oil as I was pouring it into a storage container. That would have been jaw dropping for you guy's!
Tomorrow I'll see if I can pour it out and back into the storage container to see if I can show that black stuff.
Picked up my JCW ('12) from the dealer Shorty Antennae - done Added Home Link mirror and programmed - STOKED!
Pics!!! So did you replace the regular clown nose mirror with the home link one? Been looking to replace mine with the auto dimming one. Might as well go all the way and get one with home link.
Today was time for an oil and filter change, half way between the recommended
interval (about every 7-8K) with Mobil 1 0W40 and OEM filter and new plug.
All went well.

Sure I will get a picture of the mirror for you. I had the auto dim mirror and then upgraded to a used homelink mirror, it was very easy.
Now if only the new mirror was not scratched! I am going to have to split the old mirror which is in perfect condition and I was going to sell to try to make one good mirror....all depends on how much the scratches bother me.

The President of the university here just bought a JCW convertible and had the univ mascot airbrushed on the hood and sides. Looks really cool
