took some new photos, check them out....i would love some feed back. The new ones are after the interior shots.
Not much to offer; a few thoughts I'll cover below. Very nice job w/the composition & execution. ...It occurs to me seeing these that having a white roof & stripes has a real advantage... you always have a source to do a manual white-balance off of during post!
A thought or two....
- regarding the 4th interior shot... not sure what the subject is.
- I'm not loving the artificial vignette on the color shots. I think it's a technique that works better w/B&W or Sepia treatments. This is highly subjective however; don't let that stop you if you like it yourself.
Looks great Ryan! You waste no time whatsoever to customize! So I'm sure it handles much better now eh? Which rear sway bar did you use?
I only have about 50 miles on the KW V1's so far, but they appear to handle similar to stock [no extra understeer so far]. I kept the stock standard-suspension rear sway bar, as the R56 is to remain my "luxo-barge" daily driver. Mega cornering duties will remain the R53's forte'.
Some updated pics with mods done so far, hope you enjoy....
First up are a few shots where you can see the painted arches and trim taken at Summer Splash in CT yesterday
...
Next up are some pics of my CF mods;
...
And finally a pic of my brake light mod which utilises both rear fogs when you hit the brake pedal
Whoa... You ain't mess'n around! Look'n good!
All I did to mine as long as I've owned it was get it dirty! ...and almost bend the rims on a couple'a big holes in the road!
The door handles are just CF covers so no bother at all. Yep this is my first MINI but decided to just jump in with both feet. Thanks for the compliments!

From Aesthetic Creations. I think they've stopped selling CF stuff for a while due to problems with their previous fabricator getting the work done fast enough but I think they'll be offering them again in future.
GeorgeB's MCS with JCW skirts, sport stripes H&R springs and night spokes.
Nice job on the Checkers and stripes just that those are the worst factory rims available to each their own. have you thought about checkering the flat spot of the wheels?

More mods done today, blacked out headlight rings & washers, blacked out taillight rings and custom black/red MINI emblems front and rear. Beltline blackout tomorrow. In the meantime here's some pics...
Next mod scheduled is a full seat revamp involving lots of leather, suede, red stitching and custom embroidered JCW logos. Should be done in the next couple of weeks.
