Okay Dan!! are you gonna be in a chatty mood tommorow? You're a bit grumpy lately!!..


Oh, also removed the black plastic 'slates' from my grille and replaced them with chrome mesh which makes the front look a lot better. Too late for pictures though, will upload some tommorow. ;D

Good to see you today mate. Nice chat too... 15 minutes of my shift must be dedicated to Mini talk with my supervisor! :D

My grill inserts look good, a pain to cut to size, though. I need to do the bottom one too, it will look a lot smarter then. Here is some pictures

This one was before I went to work at 8 this morning. (before the rain)

I'm doing a 'Christmas club' at work, I didnt even know I was doing it. They take a certain amountfrom my wages every week... I rarely look at my wage slips but after looking last week turns out I've got £240 saved so far... nice. Come christmas I'll be buying a set of these, and some Yokos.

Crash tests don't look promising for this car mate, it failed all of the tests which was part of its downfall. An airbag won't save me but it might help if I crash it a bit slower. :D Plus the wheels are a lot more comfy than the standard one.

Off out to crash it now to see if it works properly. :)

Oh I think I forgot to say in the next month of so I will individulizing the suspension and taking 10mm off each corner. It'll get rid of the nose dive stance, the ride will be stiffer, but better. The suspension will be getting pumped up first since it's sitting way too low, although it will be about the same height, but without the 'self-leveling' suspension (after individulizing each hydro unit) it'll be level.

The towing eye got completely mashed in town the other day because of how low its sitting. Although it doesnt look it, the engine is pretty low in the bay.

Mocked my spoiler on quickly before we go out tonight. Hopefully get it fitted tommorow. :D Looks a lot better I think, even better once the top part is colour coded.
