Mirror cover done.

Added the chq mirror cover to day to balance the A panels.

Didn't think I would do much to this car when I first got it but well and truly got the modding bug with it.

That's it until the lenses though!

Hey!

Your Mini looks great mate! Definitely a huge transformation from when you drove it out of the showroom! I'm new on here and take delivery of my One on Friday, ready to drive on Sunday on an 09 plate!

It's pretty much exactly the same as yours, hope you don't mind, but your modifications have inspired me, I think I'll definitely be looking into some stripes ASAP!

Hopefully will post again when mine turns up!

Hi, I m from Singapore and I had recently bought a MY08 Mini One. So far, just upgraded to 17' Ultralegg with 205/45 profile tires. Consumption is only around 10km/L.

I am really interested in the grille you installed. Was it a direct fit? I am also interested to fit the JCW kit but my dealer here told me it wont fit. Hope you could enlighten

MY DIY Guide to grille fitting is here:-

2nd Gen - JCW Grille & Surrounds DIY Guide (inc photos and part numbers) - totalMINI Forums

Have a look and I hope it helps!

The JCW Kit will fit a One, you can spec it on the MINI configurator CD's dealers give out! I'd have a word with someone else in the dealership!
