    Installed a JCW Aero upper grill onto the GP. Better match for the lower bumper grill IMO.

    Hadn't driven mine in a week and a half, so I made a short run to the liquor store. It is OK to go to the liquor store at 9:00 am isn't it? :D

    LMAO, because we've ALL done it.

    Today, I'm bringing mine in for warranty rust repair (2006, rust bubbles under DS taillight...). Good thing
    - It's covered by the rust through warranty
    - I had to empty the car, so I could drive it in "autocross mode"!

    Ran down to Cincinnati to one of Mr Chad's Detroit Tuned in your City(tm) events where GNAT got a physical and a tune update. All is well.

    I helped out my bestfriend (KittyMini) and installed new custom made black door handle covers, black vinyl headlight rings I made for her. I also installed her new aero grill on a sweat looking R53.

    All the chrome is gone! :Thumbsup:

    Maybe she will post up pictures.....:ihih::ihih::Thumbsup:

    Washed the MINI after a loooooooong couple days of wedding stuff for my sister's wedding yesterday.

    And showed GREAT self control the other night when my friend was messing with me on the road in their Mustang.
    I wanted so bad to make them look bad on the back roads but I was hauling the wedding cake in the MINI at the time :mad2:

    Rotated the tires, while soaking my shirt in sweat. Planned to do some other things, but the humidity is murder.

    Today, my friend Richard and I modded my wife's JCW Coupe. New Mach V Technics lowering springs, beefy Alta rear sway bar and new torque bushing inserts for the lower engine mount. Stance much improved. Handling very much improved. JCW handles like it's on rails now.
