Hi UGAClubby,

Couple of questions:

Did you paint the door handles or are they covers painted?

What is the Joey Mod?

I'm planning on de-chroming my roadster you're clubby looks great..

to Italian Job - what are the emblems on the back doors, they don't look like the standard that comes on a Clubman.

Car look great.

Did some work on mine yesterday. Other than the door handles all the chrome is gone. I already had the carbon mirror covers and hood scope. I added the gas cap cover and wrapped all the other trim with the new 3m 1080 gloss carbon. Looks pretty close to the stock pieces. I am happy with the results. Also made the rear reflectors disappear. Still have my winter wheels on but I felt like sharing.

I'm not sure I can tell just yet. There's some talk about a manufacturer-supplier thing and I got a direct purchase for goodwill purposes :X Some have seen it before and might chime in but I'm not sure I personally can. I'll check and report back ASAP!

Yes, once mounted the barn doors can swing open and closed without issue. Ingenious mounting solution really.

2009 Clubman S
This is my second Mini ( first was a green '04 Cooper non-S ).

I love this Clubman S.. automatic with paddle shifters, super fast/sporty, fully loaded, 40k miles, silver/black combo.

and for the best part... $ 14,000 !

But I do have 1 question.. this car has the big Rally-style foglights ( as seen in photo ). I hit the button to turn them on and it lights up green, but they do not come on. No owners manual, so I need to research it.

They come on after you push the button, as you have already done, and then flip the high beams on.
