Dont waste money on an intake unless you just want the noise of the S/C.... There is NO power increase over stock.

Dark Silver Beautiful Madness. The thrill just never wanes. Whatever our next vehicle is, I may just take it in and have it painted dark silver/black. Nice MINI there gh05t.

Me too because finding some really nice used BMW wheels or take offs in the 30et range is as easy/cheap as finding a new MINI owner's OEM takes off's sporting run-flats....

Send me a shirt... I'll send you some stickers! Haha... JK (unless, of course, you have some extras)

I had a friend of mine with a plotter make them for me, but you can get them at stuckonminis.com

Hahaha Nice! lol... We have another Not Normal event coming up soon.. I may be able to sneak one extra away... I'm known for that... I get like 3 extra all the time lol my girl, my son, and my buddy... I'll let you know. Great Idea though... I'm going to show my manager and see if he'll pay for a bunch "to hand out to customers" (and take a bunch for me) lol... Stuckonminis.com huh? I'll check it out... there's a few things I'm looking for maybe they have. The "Got Whine" sticker and some others...
