Thought you guys might like to see what I've moved onto. Here's my new project it's a 6-speed manual 2011 MINI Cooper S Hardtop named Pip

Here's what he looked like when I first got him:



Then I got the whole thing wrapped. I went matte white for the body and matte black for the roof.




Here are my sweet wheels I bought for a great deal! They're 18" OEM MINI JCW R105's in matte black wrapped in 255/45R18 Yokohama S-Drives.

I also painted some interior dash bits and put in some super awesome shag white floor mats

The car already has RGB led lighting in the door pulls, door handles, B pillars pointing up, and center overhead console. You can set them to cycle so it's like a rainbow disco in the car so that's what I do and I also added two 1' RGB LED strips to the footwells that change colors with the factory lighting.

I did my projector retrofit magic on Pip earlier in the year, check out my work here:

Here's the noises he makes!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwQBrLESjecSo I estimate that I've got about $8k in mods wrapped up in Pip so he's definitely pretty expensive but I love to buy him pretty things

My todo list is still quite expensive but it's dwindling down slowly:
-NM Alpha springs to lower 1.2"
-10mm wheel spacers
-NM 22mm rear sway bar
-BSH oil catch can
-NM turbo heatshield
-Howerton Engineering HFS-4 Water/Meth system
-Stoptech big brake kit painted in white with zinc plated, drilled rotors
So yep, that's what I've been up to. I sold my 'tek to a guy in Riverside, CA for $7,400. He seemed to be going to a good home, the guy had a few other cars, all in great condition and was single with no kids. Before I sold him, I took him to get a $100 bath and full detail. They made it look pretty much brand new and I almost didn't want to sell it after that. Here's a link to the craigslist ad with some pics (notice the sweet honda in the background, lol).
