Due to the high humidity in this side of the world, one of the first things I did was had a pair of seat covers made to protect the leather. I don't think I can post that in this thread though.

Also installed a black jack boot cover (made locally), Black Jack door pull & glove box covers (ordered online) & checkered rear view mirror covers. Next project, hood stripes.


Great car and color. I'd leave it as is and not add bonnet stripes. With the roof and mirrors it might be too much.

Thanks! Too late about the stripes though.

2010 Pepper White MCS
I just got back from the 2013 Dream Cruise and wanted to post current photos with mods listed in my signature. Thanks to all on NAM that provided information and help as I upgraded my 2010 MCS with JCW features to her current status..

I don't think it's the GP2 diffuser that you need, but just have yours properly done, in satin black.

It makes quite a difference.

We spent some time on my girlfriend's 2008 MCS this weekend. Changed oil (Mobil1 0W-40) and filter. Washed car. Put on rocker panel stripes. Waxed exterior with McGuire's cleaner/wax. I want to wash the engine/transmission too, but haven't been able to talk her into that yet.
