Ahhh! That's terrible! When did that happen?
#2452
Not sure. It's hailed here a few times in the past couple weeks. We didn't notice it until last night. I'm too short to be at the right angle to see it.
I think I found a place that can repair it.
Another storm coming through this week... Don't know if it will make it up here or not... Mindy might be staying in the garage some.

Centercaps are on. I think that's the last thing... for now. (Well, maybe a beltline blackout...)
http://twitpic.com/4nqzyt please ignore the piles of brake dust forming on my wheels... i swear I'll wash them when it stops raining...
You're going to have to deal with twitpic links because i'm too lazy to resize photos and upload them again elsewhere.

Here's the latest pic of our MINI after a pre-MOTD clay and wax. Amazing how much smoother and cleaner the paint is after a thorough clay and wax (although I've only done the front and roof so far )

Aw man, I have SO badly wanted to detail Basil before the trip, but every day we're expecting rain all day until Thursday :( So it looks like he's going to be driving in looking dingy and unloved - we've had nothing but rain for three or four weeks straight here. It stinks.
Nonetheless, soooo anxious and excited! I only have two more days of work until we head out. Can't wait!

Oh, for everyone going to MOTD, I'm trying to get an annual Kickball game going! Just some friendly competition!

Some new photos!
My springs are fully settled so I took some photos specifically of that. I think the stance turned out perfect - kill the wheel gap but I'm still plenty far off the ground, haven't scrapped on a thing!

http://twitpic.com/4oy8l7 (kind of wishing i had gotten a blue sway bar now that you can see it...)
Also trying to decide if I should do a beltline blackout or not... threw some electrical tape on it to get an idea how it'd look.

They look great! Absolutely love the wheels and the stance on both cars.
Wish I had the guts to modify mine, but I've had warranty issues in the past with other things and don't want any with the MINI. As soon as that warranty is up, though, I'm going all-out! Haha!
If you plan on having kickball right after the panoramic shot, Blainestang, I'm gonna have to say no. We have a club drive (a surprising amount of our club members are coming this year! About 20!) scheduled for right after. It does sound like fun though, and I do hope you have fun. :D
I'm squirming in my seat in anticipation. Just two more days of work and one class left before we head on out to the Dragon!!

Both the cars look great!
The stance is great, Amber, like 90210 said. Good height for a daily driver, IMO.
Agent.Cooper, I've moved the Kickball game to 4:30 on FRIDAY (30 minutes after the car show), which means we may want to move our Oxygen Blue get-together up a litte bit to be safe. Maybe to 3 or something instead, unless one of us is actually going to be IN the car show?
Let me know if that works for everybody. Also, I updated the kickball thread if anyone is interested.

That's it for me (thanks for the format!)... so maybe Saturday afternoon sometime? Maybe after the Ice Cream Run for Amber and after the unnamed run for Agent.Cooper?
Once this is nailed down, I may print a few little cards to put on OB MINIs that aren't one of us three so they know where and when to meet us!
