The wife finally got her MCS x-mas eve...thanks Santa!
I was going to wait to post pics after the Carbon bits and center caps got here from Aesthetic Creations, but what the hell, car's washed and another beautiful SoCal day...

Now on to the interior!

 

Your wife has a very nice MINI!

 

Beautiful red accents!

 

So.....whose MINI is it??? Not your typical "wife car."

btw...it's awesome looking!!!

 

WOW looks GREAT!!!

What wheels are those & any close ups of them please???

nice looking MINI..........those windows are begging to be tinted.

 

story goes: my wife was so cool with me getting my dream car last Sept, that I wanted to return the kindness with her dream car. She's always be a big supporter of my mod aesthetic, so she gave me free reign to "make it cute". It's a retro throw back to the 60's Monaco rallye cars. The colors help it from being to aggressively masculine, but not too feminine for hubby to cruise it.

Wheels are custom 1 piece forged wheels to resemble my ferrari challenge wheels. I want to say they are iForged track series (?)
I'll have to get more info from my buddy who got them for me. I'll get some more pics when the center caps come...

Never been much of a tint guy...
I only tint when the rear windows come factory tinted and I want to match 'em up.

THANKS for the thumbs up!!!! the wife and baby love it.

 

Very nicely executed!!!

Then they both have superb taste...they are motoring in a gorgeous MINI.

 

Wow, REALLY nice!!!

 

Seriously nice car, you have one really cool wife

 

Very nice! Wifey is lucky.... So what was YOUR dream car that she got you?

Donna

 

F430.
I guess an even luckier me!

 

As in Red?


Lucky both of you.

 

MAN, I AGREE! Congrats on the new Mini. It is very cool and extremely unique looking. The red wheels are CRAZY! I like it!!

I would love to see pictures of it once you get the CF bits on!

She must have been very BAD....

 

Really nice mini. I'd love to have a pepper white like that with BRG accents.

 

Very cool! Nicely done!

 

LOVE the MINI !!!!

Everything but the yellow lenses on the driving lights. I went away from the pic and came back to it 30 minutes later just to see if my initial thought stuck with me. It does.

Change those out and I think it'll look even better as those throw off the theme just a bit and divert the eyes attention from the really good stuff.

Oh, and paint the towhook red while you're at it.

Just my humble opinion. Still LOVE it though !!

 

Perhaps the best done Mini Mod that i have seen. Outstanding wheels.

 

As in black on black. Here's a shot pre-mods. looks WAY different now.

 

I LOVE the yellow fogs. I think it adds some depth to the entire theme and works with the overall concept of the 60's French rally car. Plus it was a nightmare trying to get yellow lensed Hella 500s and not 500s with a clear lenses and yellow reflectors...
I had clear ones on there for a day to see what I thought...too blah.

 

as much as i like the MINI...you made out better in the deal. beautiful ferrari. my dad has been a long time collector, a 308, a boxer, a modena and recently got a f430 in the silverstone color.

ferrari always has, and always will be, my favorite

 

I want to have sex with your car.

 

What does the F-430 look like now then, and please tell me its being force-fed air

 

You lucky rich bastards.

I swear, I can't believe the number of people on this forum who own exotic sports cars, and a MINI! 2 things I would have NEVER thought I'd see in the same driveway/garage.
