HOpe you guys are having a great time :motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor::motor:

That's pretty funny :itsme: :rofl:

Thanks Laura!

With the car moving and a slow shutter speed, I can't believe anything was in focus. Really cool

So I asked the google if the tinted headlights are legal and I don't see anything stating that they are not. http://www.vsp.state.va.us/Safety.shtm 5. - INSPECT HEADLIGHTS FOR: Approved type, aim, and output. Condition of lamp, wiring and switch. Beam indicator. Nothing else on the page gets into headlights. There is a section on tinting but it doesn't mention headlights, just the windows. Ali

Wow those are a lot of pictures. I'm glad you drove behind me for a bit, Tigger's butt is in a lot of them

I have found blacked out headlights online. But I doubt those headlights are as nice as my Xenons, so I haven't gone that route. Eventually I'll probably have Craig help me do the Joey Mod. Should be fun!

There's all kinds of ways to black things out. For example there's the joey mod which Craig did, he literally put his headlights in the oven to loosen the seal, pried them apart and painted the inside black. You can black out your chrome by painting it with plasti-dip, or buy blacked out pieces that fit over your chrome, or vinyl over it. I just bought some mostly blacked out tail lights because my R52 tail lights have the chrome inside the glass. Ali

Woah! NICE picture. I really like how the leaves are reflecting off of the side of the car. I like the colors and the composition. Ali

Had a fun tag tonight. I was meeting with our running team for the pasta dinner for the Marine corp runners. We were meeting at Buca di Beppo in DC. Traffic was still pretty thick from the rally and I knew I'd never find parking and make the dinner on time. So I decided to valet park it. After I got out the hostess complimented Tigger's color. Then she told me that she had a MINI too. I asked her if she knew about the club, and she was knew to the area. Of course I had a card in my purse and gave it to her. Hopefully we meet her and her MINI soon

They have a happy new home

Check em out! all installed on Tigger this afternoon. Thanks Craig, Jim and Brian! :congrats::congrats::congrats:

Ok it gets complicated. I now have 3 sets of rims. The Web spokes on Tigger now are getting the snow tires that are on the S-Lites Then I'll sell the S-Lites and have two sets of nice rims I was going to give Mark the S-Lites so he could have snow tires but I have heard they won't fit over his JCW brakes. Soooooo Ali

Looks cool I now have a set of S-Lites that I'll be selling once I take the tires off of them Ali

What are you getting?

Thanks for the email heads up Brian!

MINE, MINE they're all MINE I get them tomorrow. Tigger will look awesome! :rock::rock::rock::rock:

I get it done once every 5,000. I just can't do the 15,000 and you certainly won't hurt it if you change the oil more frequently

I found this link about how to clean your engine, he's even using a first gen MINI in the pics. I've been thinking lately I need to clean Tiggers engine. http://www.properautocare.com/howdoiclandd.html

MINI Stalkers UNITE!!!! I tagged a nice silver Clubbie in the parking garage of L'Enfant this morning

Nice pics, I love the low angles!

We have very nice cards. If you check with Laura I'm sure she'll bring some to MINIs take the Beltway for you. I think she usually has some in Cricket. Ali
