  • Mini.

    Hi all,

    Since I don't have the time, place and money to have a real build, here's my daily driver finally at a point where I'm pretty much happy with the total looks.
    I've had it since March '09 and it has seen multiple 'stages'. I'm not going to bother you guys with them and get straight to the point.

    It's a MINI Cooper D(iesel, yes.) in Dark Silver with Alpine White roof, mirrors and now wheels as well.
    I've colorcoded some of the chrome parts (headlight surrounds, taillight surrounds, tailgate handle, ...) and put on a black beltine tape. Also a white Cooper S fuel lid. (both need a redo..)
    Pretty well equiped, minus nav and leather but plus JCW Recaro seats.

    Sits on a KW V3 and now riding on ASA GT1's in 18x8.5 ET35 allround, wrapped in 215/35-18 Dunlop Sportmaxx.

    Enough talks, here are some pics. I don't have any of the interior right now, unfortunately.

    I really enjoy this. I find Mini's are one of the few cars to be able to pull off white wheels regardless of body color.

                    White wheels mean business.

                      perfect.

                      for some reason the surroundings look more like australia than belgium. must be the summer weather.

                          Would be absolutely killer, but not very handy. Regulary getting someone in the back. Maybe some time in a year or so. Never thought of that actually.
                          I'll try getting some pics later today.

                          Yeah, I know. Would need some camber plates for that and some fidling in the back as well. And we don't have low-lifestyle-friendly roads here, especially with all the roadworks around where I live.
                          Might drop the rear about half inch though.

                          Not much of a summer weather here. Might be my editing as well. Never been to Australia unfortunatly

                          Oh yeah, here's two more from yesterday.
