Will prolly add at dealer clear protection on front and bumper.

Can't wait!

B13Mini so it should be any day now and you will finally have your sweet ride. Any plans on MODS or are you keeping it stock for a while?

DS works and looks SO GOOD

Tron Chief,

Not sure, prolly stock for a while, not very knowledgable on mods, new to it all! Do mods void any warranties? Need at least winter tire set... I like the look of the chrome, so that will stay. Would love some tint! Plus my super sensitive Scot/Irish skin needs all the protection it can get!

Should be here really soon. The killer is have to wait so I can sell my car, can't sell it prior and have no ride. Trying to avoid losing on a trade-in. It may be chilling at the dealer a week or so, a little added torture.

I almost ordered a PW/PW! Then saw a few and was like, eh. Plus drove my mom's white VW cabriolet back in the day, had a white civic, had a champagne Odyssey, and now own a black Element. Also own a white 77 triple white VW convertible! Swore would never do black again, the swirl marks alone make me insane! Was looking around and contemplating hard on the color.

Saw a dark silver mini in a parking garage in Salem, one next to me on the way home and finished off with a PW/PW as I got off the highway. Was planning a trip next am to look at colors to finalize. After seeing all three my mind was pretty much set on the DS and in the showroom the next day was the most beautiful DS JCW convertible! (Now makes me think I should have gotten a convert, but need the space.) I was sold! Dark silver is beautiful and I love the metallic shimmer it gives off!

Now I really can't wait!!

b13mini -
Just thought I'd give you something else to be anxious about . Wait'll you see what happens to DS at really low sun angles. It turns the wildest metalic blue I've ever seen (see gallery)! As for the first mod, get a DSOC badge (see post below). MINI ON, in DS of course.

You've helped me with the decision to de-chrome most of my car. The DS/B looks great with the black touches. Now I gotta do it!
