Astro Black Registry

Yeah I was just abbreviating by saying the tune. I would like to do the JCW Tuning Kit as well as some custom wheels. I'm not sure If I want the 17's or the 18's or if I should do the suspension first. The JCW Aero kit would be nice as well but all of this is kind ofdreaming at this point in time as unfortunately the dealer doesn't accept monopoly money.

Here's my '08 Cooper S Astro Black / White Roof that I got on Valentine's Day of this year 2009.
The car was in Nagoya unsold ever since it arrived in April 2008, and when I went to the MINI dealership in Tokyo, since I wanted this exact colour combination, they proposed this bad boy to me, and trucked it here.
Never driven, had less than 7km on the counter.
Love how deep or flat the paint can look depending on light and angle

Succeeding Owner
My wife has metamorphasized from Jeep enthusiast to a Mini Maniac! Take a gander in the gallery, and you'll see why.
Now, two newbie Q's: 1. How do I get a black grille and trim for this R50? Do they still make them?
2. How do I put the image from the gallery in my posts? Thanks!

Rally's first ding...
OMG...I went out to wax my baby tonight and there is a ding right above the "S" on the driver's side. I thought my head was going to explode. I park as far away as I possibly can from any shopping center I visit, usually so far away that you can barely see me on the horizon. HOW this happened is a mystery. I have ding insurance on him, but I don't know if they'll be able to make it look 100%. I swear if they don't, I'm going to freak out. I'm so sad...
OKAY! GOOD NEWS! The ding was taken out in a matter of minutes by Mini's body shop. Looks just like new! Hurray!!!

Here's mine :)
I originally wanted an ink black. But, once I saw astro black in person, I wasn't disappointed. It's not a true black. It's on the dark blue/purple side (or BLURPLE!) I've had her for 3 months now and I don't regret my decision one bit.
