That should be an oven down in florida

(I had a black on black Trans-am when I lived in Orlando so I know how it is

)
Looks sweet!!!!!!!

NIce MCS nparker. I have a 2004 MCS in production right now that is pretty much the same (blk/blk w/ aero kit). I like your rims..what are they? I think I'm going for the 17" ADR m-sports in hyperblack on mine. Did you switch calipers or just paint em? I'm planning on painting mine white. What interior options do you have? I opted for the Cordoba beige with anthracite trim..felt it complimented the sportyness of the all black w/ the aero installed. I post some pics when I pick her up in Oct. Happy motoring.

NEMINI · Sep 8th, 2003, 02:53 AM

KDOG, hope you get yours in Oct. like your planning but keep in mind it usually takes a minimum of 8 weeks to get to west coast after production is completed.

nparker · Sep 8th, 2003, 02:56 AM

GMINI03: You are soooo right. It's an oven down here. It should cool down in a few months though!!

KDOG: The wheels are 18" FLIK wasp in anthracite. I painted the calipers, brake upgrades have to wait a while. I went with the leatherette interior. I want to get leather Sparco Milanos next year. I went with the silver interior. Was going to go witht he anthracite but the H/K grills would still be in silver along with the turn signal stalks and tach ring. Didn't like the contrast so I opted for to keep everything the same.

Thanks for the compliments!!!

I'll just type what I literally said out loud when I looked at your car: "Woah, that's freakin' nice!"

Chadwell · Sep 8th, 2003, 03:26 AM

VERY nice. What % is that tint?

jimskater · Sep 8th, 2003, 04:06 AM

V nice nparker.-- tints and black, a classic look. Really like the rims. Do you know if they come in a 16"? My taste in rims is not quite so large...

Cpl Hicks · Sep 8th, 2003, 08:30 AM

That's a mean lookin' machine. Very nice, nparker. Especially like the front picture, it looks really

. Happy motoring!

AidenL · Sep 8th, 2003, 09:10 AM

Congrats, looks

!

dinger · Sep 8th, 2003, 09:14 AM

What a superb and menacing looking Cooper S .

LMB · Sep 8th, 2003, 10:16 AM

It is indeed.

I love the wheels.

nparker · Sep 8th, 2003, 11:29 AM

Chadwell: the tint is 12% all around. I could have gone 6%, but thought that would be too dark.

jimskater: I believe they make them in 16"/17"/18". Check www.edgeracing.com that's where I got mine from.

jasonfields007 · Sep 8th, 2003, 02:29 PM

nice alloys!

jimskater · Sep 8th, 2003, 04:57 PM

Went to edgeracing.com. They're showing 17's & 18's in the Wasps... At least it shortens the list by one!

KDOG · Sep 9th, 2003, 03:22 AM

I hope it is late Oct. my prod date is 9/18. It may roll into Nov..but it will still be one of the first '04 s on the road. may i suggest blacking out the turn signal markers with a smoke film..i believe laminx makes em. Might finish off the look nicely considering your tail lights.

zimbo · Sep 9th, 2003, 08:43 AM

nparker,

Whooah that is one awesome looking 'S'....

If and when I can afford to join the cooperS ranks that is what I was thinking about going for
black/black with tints as well, or have the same colour/color scheme that I have on my cooper just now....

Aurel · May 26th, 2004, 06:38 PM

I really like your MCS. Nice tasteful upgrades.
Just ordered a set of Wasps from Edge Racing also and wanted to ask you where did you get the MINI decal or what it may be for the center of the wheel. I see you put it over the FLIK logo.
