Hi , could you please stop posting porn on your thread? =P

Now serious, your car is amazing (i can't say this enough times as i really love it).

Now more serious, the only thing i didn't like as much was that rear wing, for some reason i can't imagine a mini with that in any way or shape.

But, i've to say that your car is amazing (yet again =P), and i would love if you came for the IMM on Portugal this year :D

 

Regards!

 

P.S. Do you have a facebook page? I don't use instagram as often as most people do..

Thanks dude I appreciate it! I figured the rear wing might divide a few people  ;D haha. I really wish I could afford the trip to IMM, but I've already budgeted for one holiday and 2 other road trips this year! Just don't have the extra cash unfortunately  :(

I do indeed have facebook! Although I don't often post much of my car on there as most of my friends aren't interested  :lol: You're welcome to add me though, the name to search is Chris Denn

I've been thinking about what colour to do my MPI when the time comes, and I'd always rule out black, but I'm having second thoughts now, yours just looks so good.

Thanks! Black is an absolute pain to keep looking clean and shiny, but worth it imo  ;D don't see too many black MPIs either!

Wasssssap guyssss. Got a few more things to update on.

 

I've god a few new goodies stored away in my room, and I got around to fitting a some.

 

New rear lights came first. My old ones had corrosion on the the chrome, the rubbers were cracked, and one lense had developed a nice big crack, probably from age. I managed to get myself a set of clear 'gem' lenses in very good condition, they just needed a bit of a clean. To go with them I then got myself an Ultimate LED conversion kit, which is bloody bright! They needed a bit of fettling to fit but I got there in the end. I also incorporated my rear fog light into the drivers side reverse light to clean up the rear end a bit.

I wasn't a fan of the lettering and e-marking on the lenses, so I smoothed them before tinting them.

A couple of nice pics I took on the first day out the garage this year.

I then made a rather exuberant, spur of the moment purchase.

I'm absolutely in love with the mismatched look, even though I've had mixed opinions, not that that has ever stopped me  :P  As you can see I've also ha my rear lip painted, which I also love! 

 

That's all for now, but I'll be back soon!
