Thank you everyone! It is good to be back. I will let you all know when my ddmworks parts show up. I also had something else I was working on but was waiting to reveal until I was finished. I have been building a two part rear diffuser for the r53. It looks great so far. I started with cardboard and designed the visible portion which is going to be made up of fiberglass and carbon fiber. The other piece which will connect from the end of the fuel tanks to the cf piece is aluminum sheeting. Here are the pictures,


I will be buying and installing the m7 rear wing and this front lip I found on out motoring. Both of those will also be carbon fiber. Not sure if anyone saw or not but Orranje came out with new r53 vented fenders so I will no longer have to make those.

 

And sadly yesterday my fiancé rolled her volvo. The cars alignment wasn't to good and she over corrected on the highway at around 55 mph went off into the ditch and hit a drive way retainer wall and flipped a couple times. Miraculously she only has a couple cuts on her head fingers and feet from all the broken glass. No broken bones or internal injuries. Just shook up really bad.



When she is ready to drive again I will be in the market for a new mini for her. I think I'll get a larger club man. Our son was not with her at the time thank god. He was at home with me.
