    Washed the Blu MINI real good. Just as I finished good friend Bill came over with his new 996. Went for a flog on the back roads. While not a Porsche guy I have to say it is a great drive. Think I'd like one of my own. :D

    Added some pictures of Bill's panzer.... :D

    Was going to wash it at the touchless place but the line went to Cleveland. Guess I'll wait till 1am, the line should be shorter by then.

    instead went for a fun little drive with windows open. Won at the game of pothole slalom too.

    Such a happy MINI when temps are over 50F, we had a great drive like you stole it session.

    Said good-bye to the 'Jerry Garcia' look of the IP (4 digits and a stump).

    Certainly made the IP look more finished with the rear fog switch. Now to get it some edumacation.

    Went for a spirited run through Delaware and Marion Counties this afternoon and then cleaned the road grime from him.
    Dark Helmet waiting to go play today.

    Added an AUX plug to the factory radio, now I can listen to music in the car again. No more NPR induced road rage for me. Also changed the color of the wheels to graphite. Went for a nice drive around the county too. It was sunny and warm today.

    Really not today, still in recovery mode. I did pull and dump the catch can on Scooter the other day. I really should do that more often.

    If this picture uploads, this is two dumps since MITM WP. Yes, my battery tender is still working. :)

    I know you like to change things up, but the condom car look just isn't it. :wink:

    Or is this the chromifacation of the Dark One into Chrome Helmet? :idea:

    It is the long nap the MINI needs before heading south.

    Got called a hooligan for driving around a major shopping area full of SUV's like they were cones in an Auto-X.

    For you locals, I was in Easton Town Center going to the Apple Store, so what if it bounced off the rev limiter in 2nd gong by Nordstom's.

    Used your recommendation....Plastidip warmed up in hot water and it sprayed out perfect.
