Umm... :whistle:
Rear 19mm Sway is at work, hope to install everything soon!
So far, I did a 35% tint all around, connected a module that some dude made that overrides the factory Mini setting for the "Sport" button so that it defaults ON instead of OFF so I don't have to push it everytime I get in the car to turn it on. I also purchased via fleabay the euro OEM armrest (Gen 1 model) that was very badly needed. I'm bidding on a Satellite radio unit for my car that someone is selling on eBay, I hope to pick it up at a decent price (I was just outbid but will wait until the auction is close to ending before bidding again).
Few more pics:

My brother made this for me when he was in SC, it's a "RideMakerz" model ( www.ridemakerz.com )

Or these (I originally tried finding my car with this but there was none out there)
This is what the JCW wheels would look like:

on to the next one...
I think that would be a VAST improvement! If I were to get mini I would go with your exact color combo, except with black JCW wheels - but black wheels are definitely a matter of personal style.
Get those JCW's and it'll be perfect!

Finally...I'm officially 1.2" closer to Earth... I didn't have time to put the RSB in, even though it probably would have been easier to do it while removing the springs, but I guess I'll do it next week. With the help of my friend's shop (using a lift and air tools) and one of his tech's, we finished the task in about an hour and a half! We didn't even take off the rear wheels while working in back, but we did take off the front wheels because we didn't have much of a choice. Anywho, here she is! Figure give it some time for the springs to settle and the car will probably drop a little more..Don't mind the brake dusty wheels, I need to wash it again tomorrow...

Looks great Shoofin, all you need is to put on your new tires, paint the fenders and match the tint on your front windows!

You've made the car look pretty suite, I like the older gen hatch style a bit better, but still a nice ride you got there.
Also did they change the motor on those? Or is it still the Turbo 4 from before.
