Love it, Kim! Absolutely beautiful! (The car's not bad either)

 

-Add me to the list pls 2013 JCW, Im not really into giving cars names or maybe I should just call it "AWSOME"

 

Welcome, Wilpower. Very nice!

I almost bought one that looked like yours. I held off to buy a GP and ended up ordering a coupe anyway. LOL. Be sure to join the Coupe Owners Group on Facebook. We do a lot of talk, tips and picture posting there.

 

awesome looking coupe.. my baby is FULLY broken in, 1245miles in 9 days just around the city driving (minneapolis)

and WHOA on finally pushing her to the max after i hit 1200miles. exhaust sounds better and better too.

 

Ha! Thanks!!!

 

Thanks Jimmy! I'm only at 271 miles so far. Can't wait to floor it!!

 

Yours is my favorite Coupe that isn't mine. And me standing next to mine doesn't have the same effect.

 

Thanks James! I'm flattered! That's saying something since you have one Bad A$$ed Coupe IMHO!

 

This is my JCW from Italy!!!

 

thats one sexy coupe. my bonnie is the same color, great choice hehe..

 

Nice color combination.

 

You can add me! White Silver/Black. Been great fun so far!

 

Just got the side stripes installed.

 

nice!! i like that. can you post a full on side shot? got me a lightning blue w/silver top coupe too and am liking the side stripes. do you have the racing stripes too?

 

Yup contrasting stripes.

 

Can't seem to post more than one pic at a time today from my iPad.

 

I'm now working with a client in Milwaukee and seeing a Black with Chili Red JCW coupe in the lot. Is the owner on here?

Jim

 

We just got back from a vacation in China. Lots of MINIs of almost all kinds, but I only saw one coupe (and no Roadsters). This was in Beijing.

 

Lolita has arrived!

Dang, I've had the car for a year and I'm not even on the list lol

Here it is...

 

Very nice Is everything blacked out with vinyl?

 

Nope, plasti dip my good friend! I blacked out the car as soon as I got it last April and it still looks good even with the sun and rain. That stuff is awesome. I tried the handles which looked awesome but it didn't last. Peeled off in like 1 week because of the constant touching =(.

Just saved the money from not going with vinyl and put it towards a meth kit lol.

PlastiDip all the way!

 

Very nice job...just popped everything off and sprayed it down or was it done in place? Do you have to take care when you wash and wax?

More pics too, please

 

Yea, just popped off the TL rings, HL rings, Grill surround and side scuttles.

A few coats will do the trick. I wash and wax the car like normal, no special treatment. Just don't wax or clay the plastidip...it'll peel right off haha.

One thing about it....when you dry the car the plasti looks a bit white-ish from the soap....a little bit of black wow that's used for the wheel arches will make it look nice and black again. Or any similar product.

I'll post pics of the pieces I did when I get the chance today.

 

Excuse the massacre of bugs...


















This little cup handle was chrome but I plasti dipped it as well. Perfect for protecting the cars paint from scratches when people reach to open the door. It holding up surprisingly well considering you see scratch/scraps from people's fingernails...probably not visible in the pic.
