Great to see your wait is over Rachael. Love that Ice Blue. Still haven't had time to get pics of my clubbie posted yet. Maybe tomorrow.

I picked mine up from the dealer earlier this month - no mods or graphics yet. I haven't made up my mind which way I want to go on the graphics yet.... On my 04 MCS we had fun with them, so on this car I think we might have to be just as fun - just more challenging with the Hot Chocolate color...

My mechanics offered to have the shop dog walk all over the MINI with dirty feet, but I opted for vinyl instead. It has a better range of colors...

I have had Labs or near approximations of Labs for my entire life except for my undergraduate years and the two years that followed. Due to several doubles (2 dogs) and my own (45 year) lifespan, I have enjoyed about 55 Lab-years in my life.

What size are your wheels? Love the look. Shopping to replace my silver alloy wheels for larger black ones!

looking for feedback

I haven't posted here in ages. I've been kicking around the idea of doing some vinyl work and had my buddy mock this up for me. It's difficult to find a good contrast color with brown, I'd like the orange to be more of a darker rust color. Post your feedback.

I agree, a darker rust shade will work quite nicely! Love your wheels, how big are they?

It's beautiful. I love the colors on the outside and the seats.

I was nervous about not getting a red one - they are so nice...

They're the 18" JCW R105 rims. Thanks, I love them.
