Prestonshadu's 2004 MINI CooperPrestonshadu's 2004 MINI Cooper
11/21/08-Some of the aftermarket goodies that came from the former owner-Carbon Fiber hood scoop, 17" BBS T5's w/ yokohama Avid W4s, JCW aero kit with paint matched accent pieces. It seems to have a lower than stock stance also, so I'm not sure if it was lowered, haven't had the chance to check the suspension yet.  I know the goddamn drivers side tires chaffe the fender well guard all the damn time. 


Prestonshadu's 2004 MINI Cooper1/15/09-So I go to merchants to get a tire replaced and the cocksuckers just couldn't seem to get'er in the shop without smacking the fucking wall....thanks guys.

Prestonshadu's 2004 MINI Cooper2/8/09-Well shit-Ol' Jasper is falling fucking apart.  I hit 128 on the beltway the other night and i'll be goddamned if the fender plastic flew off...both sides.  $225 to replace both...Fuck.

Prestonshadu's 2004 MINI Cooper2/11/09-Found these all black projector upgrades lamps online and decided to install them via Windows paint. They look like shit. Then again, I'm not a painter.  Either way, i can't wait til these get here so i can actually install them. $280 shipped. These are NOT a xenon upgrade!!!!  They're made for Mini's with the halogen setup. Modification is required to retrofit a xenon setup.  I'm trying to get ALL the chrome and silver accents off of this car.  I'm not a fan of the chrome with this paint scheme. And the stock silver plastic dash looks like shit.

Prestonshadu's 2004 MINI CooperAnother attempt at a paint preview, this one isn't as bad.  Still waiting for delivery....$180 shipped

Nice start. I was wondering about the rubber mats...are they even worth it? As for agreement/disagreement you were asking for, I like the fact that there is no armrests. I find it easier to reach across the vehicle or into the back. I do wish the cupholders were bigger though. I like all the chrome you are using. I am doing a chrome/black mix. I really dig the interiors of the minis so I will only accent the interior. I do plan on adding some tv's and such on down the line though. Feel free to message me if you wanna chat about mini's. I've only had mine 2 weeks, but I have big plans for it.
