What did you do with your MINI today?

Slippery MINI's are faster, get better gas mileage, and look good too:.....

 

Test fit the surround to the "heads up" display that will remove the night time reflection on the windshield. Next up is final welding and then off to powder coating.

 

Washed up my MINI before the heat became too bad this morning.

 

Welding????? Do you have any larger pictures of it?

Jim

 

Hey Nathan.... Must really be for a MINI gauge..... Is that a 1/4-20 hex nut in the first pic?

 

Sorry, just some iPhone pics that you see.

The curved section is just tack welded to the back plate. It still needs the finish weld to make it all look nice and pretty.

 

Today I installed my H-sport rear sway and gave my MINI a much needed bath.. No idea what the temp was out there but I got sunburned and probably sweated out a gallon of water lol

 

Used my MINI to haul '89 Mustang GT parts...

 

Changed the gearbox fluid at 48,600 miles. Didn't look too bad.

 

Drove mine in the rain.

Jim

 

Hopefully I'll be doing that later today, we need the rain bad after this last heat wave.

 

Drove my wife's Countryman from Columbus to Lafayette, Indiana. While I enjoyed the comfortable ride, I missed the lowered suspension rough ride that Silverback gives me.

 

I avoid that, whenever possible.

I installed a euro parcel shelf and a CG-Lock on mine, yesterday actually. Today if the rain lets up, I'll install my new vanity plates.

 

What is this rain you speak of?

 

It's a Pacific NW thing, water actually falls out of the sky! It was even cloudy and rainy today!
My penchant for avoiding drives in the rain, in this part of the country, is probably why I only have 7000 miles on my 2010 MINI!:biggrin5:

First we have seen in over a month and the temp was below triple digits, which is why I went out and drove in it.

Jim

 

I think we are on day 25 of triple digits with no end in sight... This us why I pay extra so Daphne can spend the day in covered parking!
