The StyleBar

Well .. What else could I call it !!
Ever since I picked up this MCS I`ve been mulling over various ideas on how to both add more chrome & revise my earlier Mk1 BadgeBar Project .
So Today I finally got round to putting it all together.

Well Spotted.
White or Blue 12 Volt LED`s - Stainless Steel Housing - Waterproof -
Too good to use on Decking I thought .. & they were knocked down to £7.50 (pack of 4)

It was far easier than anticipated to tell the truth, with everything going to plan.
The Bottom section of the Front Spoiler is cheaply available (arond £20-) direct from your local BMW dealer`s parts dept, with slightly different variations for each MINI varient.

Its just down to your imagination of what to do with it

Removal of the Front Bumper assy is pretty straightforward

As long as they`re the 12Volt type with the built in volt-drop resistor.
{LEDs normally blow with anything over 2 Volt }

Decking Leds are ideal as they designed to be hardwearing & rustfree
