[e30pwr]

very clean, i normall yhate mini's but the painted trim does it in

[TheStig]

That means, you're gonna make me want a Mini even more

[Vegas_Sirk]

Thanks! I should have some more updates in a couple of days

[TheStig]

I love this car, Im thinking about picking up a Mini next year, this is exactly what I want to do to it, I love the Classics, they have been a favorite of mine for a long time.

[SWINFORD]

Amazing!!!

dude looks so sick. i have been wanting to see this kind of mini for a while now.

[Vegas_Sirk]

Damn man, everything done to this car is done so fucking proper. I love it

Thanks!

Im trying to build the car with proper parts that actually improve performance, and nothing that is BS. Most of the looks are done on the car so everything from this point on will be mostly functional.

Nice. I'm looking to get into the marketing department at my job. I was a Customer Care Generalist, and I just got word of my promotion today to become a Customer Care Retention Specialist. Which is all fine and dandy for now, but my overall goal is to finish the last few classes needed this fall to get my Business Sales and Marketing certificate.....which will get me into the marketing dept. at my job

Nice ... marketing is somewhat fun compared to other areas of business. Ideally I would love to go work for a Formula 1 or AMLS team working as a sponsorship manager.

if your into online marketing I recommend checking out www.mashable.com as its a great site.

Tint is 20% all around

As for sponsorship you need to prove to the company that you get make it worth their while. For example if they are going to give you a part that costs $500 you need to prove to them they are going to get $1000 worth of exposure.

I am a marketing guy for a medical equipment company as my day job and then do online marketing on the side, as well as have a business degree in marketing so I just put togeather a marketing proposal showing ROI.

The proposal consists of:

Intro About Me
Intro About My Past Car Builds
Current Mod List
Proposed Mod List
Type Of Coverage The Car Is Going To See
List Of Events It Will Be Attending
Quality Photos Of The Car
Return On Investment Analysis
Parts Requested
Type Of Sponsorship Requested (Full or Partial)

The more professional you present your self the better off you will be. This is my 3rd car build with sponsors, I have found the more cars you build and can show that your last projects where successful for your last sponsors the easier it gets. If this is your first full on project that your looking for sponsors the best piece of advise I can give is be happy with Partial sponsorships. Once you prove your self to them they will be more and more helpful on future projects that will follow.

2pc Rotors by DBA (5000 series) - right now these are the only 2pc rotors on the market for the JCW OEM Brembos :tu:





Stainless Steel Brake Lines:



Also the Recaro Pole Positions came in ... Im just waiting on one more set of brackets.





BK brackets to work with OEM sliders:



And a new seat weight sensor to keep the passenger air bag working

[WhiteStripes]

Wow man, that is an amazing little Cooper you have there. The CCW's look so god on it. And teh painted trim and euro fenders are a huge improvement too.

[Vegas_Sirk]

Update:

Ordered up some 2pc floating slotted rotors from Disc Brakes Australia



These have just been released and are the only 2pc rotors on the market that work with the JCW's Brembo kit :thumbsup:

Also ordered up some Goodridge Stainless Steel brake lines from Double Down Motorsports



Now I just need some Motul 600 Brake Fluid and Carbontech XP10 and XP8 brake pads and the braking system should be golden.
