Thanks!!
No plans for any mods yet. I bought the OEM roof rack but won't need it put it on till spring for travelling and camping. I also have a set of wheels and rims with Blizzaks to be mounted soon...with TPMS sensors $$
Cool, it took me a week or two on the configurator until I got it the way I wanted it,

Got family in the Bay area too. Once visited a cousin for X-mas and I wanted to walk across the GG Bridge just for fun. My cousin gave me a "hell, no!" because she said not everyone is a good driver and I might get hit by a fool losing control of the car because they drove too fast in the snow! I'd take her word for it since she's lived there her whole life.

I've done the walk, the bike ride, and the drive countless times since 1974, and I lived to tell.

Picked up our new Clubman S Friday. AFTER it took longer to get from the VDC to Virginia than it took to get here from the UK! Anyway, we've had our '07 MCS for a couple of years now, (actually the sons car, but he doesn't know it) and this is just as nice as that was. I do like the one touch up windows though. Still taking it kinda easy since it's new, but by th end of the week, we'll stretch it out a bit. As of now, I'm just as satisfied with this one as I was the '07.
And yea, the daughter kinda like "Gizmo" too!

Where did this front plate mount come from??? The factory one is centered on the bumper.

That's funny Parkerton! 
Remember I'm the one who went to SSF High! I do have a brother that lives in the Bay Area but last I knew he was driving a Mini-Van. I live right down the road (50 miles is right down the road in Texas) from Round Rock. That infamous town of Waco!
I have and 11 year old but we might have to check out that museum anyway. I'm actually looking forward to the big new one in Golden Gate Park.

Hey Miki, the California Academy of Sciences in Golden Gate Park is a GREAT place for an 11 year old. I would say much better than the Children's Discovery Museum for this age group. Here are some pics I took there when we went a few weeks ago: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tonyand...7608425210931/

That's the one from Moss Motors. My '07 MCS has GOMINI's set up and I wanted to try something different. GOMINI's is real nice, but sets off the vehicle a little too far for me. Unlike theirs that screws into the tow point, Moss Motors actually clips into the lower grille. I was a bit apprehensive about that, but once it was clipped in, it was right solid. It has some adjustability in it, so you could raise it or lower it a bit from where I have it. I'll give it a while and see how it goes. Hopefully I won't have to buy a new holder AND a front license plate! I'll try to get some better pics soon.

Thanks for the info. I see the one from Moss is $46
