    Think I might go wash all the ice and salt off the MINI today so I have a fresh base to gather more during the next winter storm that is supposed to hit us tonight.

    Vinyl wrap to roof

    I had the pleasure today to meet and watch Don Nguyen transform my 2012 MCS. She started as a Chili Red lady with a white roof. Now, has a shiny glossy black roof to match the pillars.

    Great guy, recommend his work! Here are a few pics… as you can see I have tinted the windows recently as well.

    The other day I washed my car in the lite rain and dried it in the garage. Today I replaced my license plate lenses and turned my car around in the garage. Some new wax comming this week so I need to test it out. :devil::ihih::Thumbsup:

    Skooby got a new battery. I had planned to get through the winter with the original, but last night Skooby told me if I didn't get a battery I was going to be very sorry. New battery in & Skooby & Babs are smiling. Skooby kicked the Blu one out of the garage. The defrosting process is ongoing.

    Well at work today we were pretty slow due to the weather. A buddy at work helped me out today,

    I ordered a clutch kit from Amazon, it was a luk kit. Long story short Amazon sent the wrong kit. And they paid the difference to Midwestern auto group here in Columbus for a factory clutch kit. So no complaints about Amazon. Once I got the correct kit Lonnie finished it up. I missed my baby. .... clutch feels ohhhh so good.

    Dude just let me know when you want to stop by one night and we can pull it in the garage and jack it up and look. I even have some crap carpet we can put on the floor instead laying on the cold as F concrete. :Thumbsup:

    Just not tomorrow night, I have to take down our tree with Kim.
