I have had a mad mini makeover week!!!
Last Monday the Union Jack was removed and replaced with silver chequers. Why I hear you ask - well im not saying because I will get emotional AGAIN, but basically I had to do it for the safety of my car. The silver chequers look really nice and yet understated on my white roof, I thought it would be a bit different from getting black or indi blue chequers.
Ahhh haa and here is Christmas. Andrew bought me a set of those sharksfin side repeaters (I think they look more like gills myself) and tried to fit them today and couldnt as they wouldnt hold in place but after searching on here I have found some things to try.
And here is my fave bit, the Pirelli runflats came on friday courtesy of BigAlloys and this coming wednesday the S Spokes will arrive

. I have been warned about what this will do to the ride as i have SS+ but I had an XR2i for nearly two years before the beemer so I think I will be ok. ( I am keeping my 16"s just in case though).
Thats all the makeover for now - lol I have drained the pockets of all those who love me.
Pics will be posted next weekend once the wheels are on and hopefully the side repeaters.

Cross fingers
