    Now that it's perfect have you ever considered clear bra? I'll never own another car without it at least on the bumper.

    Drove to work. Hoping the building burn down today.


    Ugh, I hate this place.


    Hey! Look at that, I have a lighter in my pocket.
    /Nah, I'm just joking. I wouldn't do it, but I can hope it would happen.

    Not today but last night...

    I got banned from my first MINI forum. :(
    It was from MYNES so no great loss. :)

    All because of a comment on a MINI group on FB! Somebody wants an honest opinion about Bytetronik, well I'm going to give it to them...
    Its not like I am going to be the silent type when I'm over $3K in the hole, just because of their product and lack of support. I just keep it off the boards for the most part.

    I did find out that Mynes is starting to see that Sprintex really is crap, right before the ban message came...

    Looks like I will need to post that pic from the computer, so you can actually read it. Basically take the Sprintex owners thread on NAM, focus on my posts saying all the problems they have, then shorten it, and now thats the same thing they are saying.

    Another drive into work this morning. Since school is out there are parking places on the street to be found. Couldn't pass this one up this morning:

    And the other day I found a spot that was just perfect, but just for a MINI!

    Congrats on your Banning and welcome to the club. :Thumbsup: We are all very proud of you. :ihih:

    We should really have a "Banned by Mynes" T-shirt or a little banner under our user id's like "lifetime member".

    Just saying.....:devil:

    Got the car back from my local shop after having the coolant, brake fluid and PS fluids all flushed and replaced. WOW does new PS fluid feel nice. Thought something was wrong with the car driving it home. Nice and smooth and a bit less effort (although I do miss the bit more effort.....:D). All was in preparation for heading north to Pacific Raceways for the historic races this weekend. Gonna have fun!

    I was the OCD one that posted bout the leaf blower. I use it every time I was my car and even bring it to the Dragon.

    The reason I dry most of my car with a leaf blower is because the less you touch your paint without a properly lubricated MF towel the less a chance you have of stretching it. Water is not a lubricate and quick detailers like Prima Hydro help break down and remove water and is a must if you have hard water.

    Drove over to Best Motor Werks to pick up Blake. He dropped his R53 off to get the water pump replaced.

    Gave the MINI the evening off. Took the Babs & roadster out for a romp on the back roads to Utica for a samich & ice cream at Ye Olde Mill. :D

    Think I'm driving the roadster more than the MINI lately.
