First post in the exterior section! Here is a new mod I just added to my car, check it out! Before: After: Chad Detroit Tuned 586.792.MINI
you're just trying to get lucky tonight does look nice though kind hard to see in that pic and yes light it up plz chad
I went a different direction JS Art spoiler, GP Insert, Rear wiper delete, Cabrio light inside the glass, flipped upside down.
Sorry no pics of it on, but can say it's very bright and red just like stock. The LED's are as good as stock. Over all you can tell the part is made in china, but the look and function are what i was looking for. It took the red out of the wing area and turned it black, then it lights up very bright and red to let people know i am stopping. the stock light has 12 LED's and this one only has 8, but like i said, very bright. Since the part was made in china, i took the extra step and put some black silicone around the edge where the clear lens and the back are sealed. i find on there parts there is always a hole somewhere that will let water get in, so i made sure it was sealed up before i had a problem. also the spot where the harness plugs in was kind of cheap and not all that great. but for $57.95, i thought i would be a nice item to try. you can see it here: MossMini.com - Parts & Accessories for Your BMW Mini Cooper OR i have 2 in stock, but one has been spoken for i think.
Nice look and good price too. But I have the Minspeed 3rd brake light flasher.... PGT Very nice clean set up.....I really like it. I was also thinking of swapping out my S-spoiler for a different one, but that JS set up you have is sick ! * Hard to tell from that angle but is it gloss black or flat black ?
satin black actually. It didn't look out of place with the gloss black room....blended well in fact. The 3rd brake light from the Cabrio took a bit of work but the clean rear end was worth the struggle.
Chad, Is it something that is only for the hard top, or can I use it for Cecilia too? Or is that a totally different part.. and if so, on that note, do they have ones for the Cabrios?
These are for hard top R50/R53 only sorry. we could tint your if you wanted. I also have a JS art wing in stock already in Gloss back ready to install. $225 plus shipping! what a deal! much cheaper than the guy!
Yeah, I know they are a different light, but I didn't know if it was something that replaced the entire thing.. Bummer. Oh well. I just want to get something brighter for Cecilia. For some reason, people can't see it...:crazy:
Yeah, I know. That's one reason why I got the repeat thingie. I thought if it would flash at them they might see it more, but somehow not so much. Making me a better driver tho.. I'm being more observant!
ive been wanting to get one of these...nice to see a better picture than the one on moss. ill buy your other one if youd like to sell it. Im getting ready to go outside and install one of your bpv. wish me luck.:yesnod:
