Some of us West Coast MINI types couldn't wait for our next run on the 15th, so we had a modding party yesterday. What a total HOOT! Installed 3 RSB's, 2 SSA's, a WMW diverter valve, a 3rd brake light pulsar and a new upper grill surround. All this while exchanging a huge pile of modding expertise (?), a mountain of laughter, a great BBQ and the Kentucky Derby, too! Great fun in the SoCal sun. :lol: :smilewinkgrin:
Got a few pics of yesterday's fun. Unfortunately, they show just how hard some of us weren't working! LMAO
I like the white roof in the 4th pic, hanging on the wall in the man cave. What's the story behind that?
Kinda long story about that roof. It was presented to our host (Ed P.) for the modding party by MINI of San Diego (MoSD) at their private grand opening in Dec. Ed and his wife do a LOT of charity work in SoCal. West Coast MINI was the only MINI club invited. It marked the 100th opening of a MINI dealership in the USA. Roger Penske was there and that roof is signed by the head of MINIUSA and a couple of the big honchos from Europe. All of us were just a little pumped over that roof and even more so at finally having a truly outstanding dealership in San Diego County. BTW, Ed's the guy actually working in that pic! Here's another pic of the F/R MINI badges he made for his highly modded JCW. Ed really knows his stuff!!
