fair enough thats your opinion, that is what a forum is for opinions, but you slagging my :rolleyes: car off like that i dont like, im 16 yrs old, i have owned the car since the age of 13, so i dont earn loads of money, but what money i do get goes towards my car, the angels arnt pink there red you stupid bananas c***! and the bonnet was with the car when i bought it, i have another being sprayed 2 go on the car, the max power sticker is being replaced with a whole new windscreen with a red racing strip, so i would most appreciate it if you didnt laugh at my car, as yours isnt exactly :rolleyes: stunning is it! so maybe when you get a nice car you can comment on others peoples not so perfect modifications! so when i get some money i will get rid of the bad modifications i didnt even do not because you think it looks poo but because i want 2.

sorry if i have upset anyone, not you "lewis" because you r a Posted Image

Ive got a spoiler the same as minimadmatt but ive strengthened mine and made it detachable.
I must say when I put it on for the mad blast to college or sunday drive in the counrty it does actually make the car less skittish at the rear on flat out corners. As far as grip for the front is concerned it doesn't do anything but it does stop a fair amount of air hitting the front valance and deflecting it under the car causing the rear to become light at about 75mph+

I do agree with minimadmatt to a point. Taking the pee out of peoples cars ent could for. Especially as its a mini and not just some shopping trolley.
Weve all been skint teenagers before but the fact that minimadmatts driving a mini is a credit on its own regardless if its not to your liking.
After all, all good things come to those who wait and give the lad some time and hell probably have a mini youll be envious off lewis.

Quit suprised nobody has cleaned up minimadmatts post up there hey charlie where are you? You always seem to get all of mine lol!

Yea ok fair point guys. I wish i'd got mine earlier wouldn't have wasted so much money on a mountain bike that i hardly ever use anymore!

By the way matt did you go to the south west cruise last year at paignton? I think you were there with your grandad? if you remember i snapped my accelerator cable right infront of where you were parked? Perfect timing! lol

yeah wow its you, i take it you got it fixed in the end then! did the recovery come out? i bet you didnt get home till about 1am. sorry i couldnt help ya :sad:

will have 2 meet you at another cruise ive got a few changes from last time you saw the mini :wink:

by the way "lewis" i dont have that tatty bonnet with the metro scopps on now, thanks 2 you i actually thought F**K it does look really tatty, so its gone and i have my better fibreglass bonnet on now, even though its white at the mo, its better than metro styling! and its lighter than my old one, so i might have that extra 1/4 of a BHP increase :tongue:

all i need now is 2 get a new front windscreen rubber, so i can fit my new one

jimbo_edmondo are you going 2 the southwestmotorshow???

12th june, get another mini there :cheese:

Ive had minis since I was 14 and I started in exactly the same position as yourself. Ive had three minis so far but I wrote my last one off in an accident. This is a pic just before I had the accident. Im gunna try and get a clearer one but im taking pictures of normal pictures so they are not that good.
The car had a stage three 998 and was completely gutted and renewed. I learnt that the more you could do yourself the cheaper and in most circumstances the better the job.
Just keep on working on yours and im sure itll look sweet once its finished.

That was kind of lame, but anyways here's the front spoiler I am talking about. I really like this one. I don't really care for the big front spoilers or body kits. I would like to have one that you would really have to look for. Kind of subtle, but each to each own.
