BTW, where did you get the WRC decals? Do you know if they're available for the Countryman S? (I have one on order now!)

i got my wheels refurbed with a silver and black mirrored finish, although i've managed to get hold of a set of R109's so i've got a few options for my new look but i'm enjoying being naked at the moment.

Wow, there are some amazing looking Clubbies here - I almost didn't post. But you can't have too many in Laser Blue, can you?

No, you can't have too much Laser Blue. It is impossible to have too much Laser Blue.

2.5" The blow off sound is awesome. It would be really loud if it was atmospheric. Plus the car goes pig-rich when you dump atmospheric on a MAF car. I have an Alta atmospheric BOV if you want to but it ;-) Plus if you want to do away with the factory DV there is a trick to keep the ecu happy...
