The Checkered Flag
I received in the mail my brand new JCW Checkered flag floor mats. these things are a great addition to the interior of my Mini. It really opens up the cockpit and with the splash of white.
Status Update:
I recently took my MINI into the dealership to get a maintenance checkup. I wanted to get MINION ready for the HMMS Waco drive event this Saturday.
The mechanics looked the car over and found that my front tires were bald and that i needed to replace them ASAP. I was not planning on paying for anything extra for the car so as you could imagine I was pretty shocked and disappointed that i had to fork over $600 for a pair new front tires. They added Continental run flats to the front.
I also had wanted to get an alignment and tire rotation. Since they added the new tires they skipped the tire rotation, but went ahead with the alignment. They also did an oil change and replaced my rear brakes. I am so glad for the 100,000 mile scheduled maintenance plan because i only had to pay for the tires and alignment everything else was free!
Stay tuned for Updates with my interior and also the upcoming HMMS event "The Waco Run"

Stubby
Today I received my Carbon Fiber Stubby Antenna to replace the long stock antenna on the roof.
Evolution of MINION Continues
Evolution of MINION Continues
The next couple mods are for the interior:
Retrofit Colorline Interior Kit
Color White: This will give the current interior to match my exterior a little more.
I love the streamline colors of black and white so I'm keeping the style the same on the inside.
The Dash, door armrests, eBrake Boot, and shifter Boot will be white leather.
JCW Checkered Flag Floor Mats
These will open up the cock pit a bit more adding some white to the floor. And you can never go wrong with a checkered flag.
I'm also finally getting a stubby antenna to replace the exterior antenna on the roof.
The adventure continues as MINION and I tackle curves across the state of Texas. MINION has gone through some small changes with its performance enhancements and Also Exterior additions. MINION will continue to change, but some recent evolution is under way for this little road master.
I have recently ordered a white under glow kit
I will be installing this kit very soon. Stay tuned for photos and video.

MOTD 2012
So I just got back from an amazing vacation to North Carolina / Tennessee. Took the Mini up to MINIs on the Dragon 2012. a massive MINI event with over 700 MINIS and over 1000 attendees. We drove the Dragon, Cherohala Skyway, and the hellbender, and other crazy curvy roads. I also had some mods done to my car. Took a dent out of my driver side door. Installed new turn signals. I also had a Tourqe Arm Bushing installed.
Here are pictures from the event.

SeaSide Drive to Rockport / Fulton TX
MHILLA, JCWORX, and Myself (MINION1) ventured out along the Southern Coast of TX. Seeing the seaside waters, Expensive Enormous Houses, Mansions, Art Galleries and even ate at a terrific Seafood Restaurant called Charlotte Plummer's Restaurant. Hit some rain on the way but that didn't stop us. Here are some photos from the trip.
