Thanks for the kind words about my new buddy Nigel.

As for the floor mats, they're Mini brand mats. They're called "Cosmopolitan Floor Mats" made from super soft velour with a reflective trim. The Mini part number from your dealer should be:

Front (pair): 51 47 0 441 798
Rear (pair; Cooper & Cooper S): 51 47 0 420 548
Rear (pair; Clubman & Clubman S): 51 47 0 432 503

Cheers.

Slapped on the M7 splitter and M7 lower grill this past weekend:





Oh and my new Filipino Flag grill badge. :-)

Now, I'm just impatiently waiting for the Helix Intercooler group buy to complete!

Your hood scoop looks like its warping.

I bought it like that, but they are standard add-ons anyone can make. I think you just need to NOT have the convenience package to add on the black jack door handles, but I could be wrong.

Did you order your car like that or did you take it off the lot? I can't stop looking at your car. It's very nice.

Wow. Didn't notice that actually. But it doesn't look that bad. I'll take a closer look later.

If anything, gives me a perfect excuse to upgrade to the carbon fiber JCW hood scoop to compliment the carbon fiber splitter. :-)

Thanks man! I actually got it used as an 2008 model with super low miles exactly as shown, so I can't take credit for the design choices, but I do know I love it! I think what really makes a difference is getting the fender trim in a matched body color instead of black...I really like it that way so that the black wheels stand out.

Here are some bonus pics from my basic point & shoot camera from my new buddy Nigel:

I definetly agree with the matching colour fenders making a huge difference, great looking ride.

Nice ride Broid I think some lowering springs would be a nice addition to it...

Thanks all, not sure about the springs though. What happens to my ride quality? It rides real nice now, hate to stiffen that up much...
