sir21's new whip (wife's)

[jdTrader]

Ha! It didn't look like a mini or a bentley to me, but I thought the badge was a bentley! Nice catch Tim!

 

[RIPnFX]

IMO I totally knew it was a mini without looking at the emblem, no car looks like a mini

 

[sir21]

Haha. It's a mini copy. Can't miss that Jonas. Did you forget to put on your reading glasses?

 

[Logan]

I love you guys gettin' all granular on the details......

 

[sir21]

Exactly. Gotta slap that Bentley badge on the mini asap

 

[catchx34]

nice! i've always liked minis

 

[sir21]

So I'm thinking of buying this and wrapping this in matte black. They just reduced the price from $300 to $200 at Costco. It even has a JCW front bumper like my wife's Cooper! You guys think its doable? I checked it out and looks like most of the trim pieces either clip in or screw in so they'll be easy to remove....

 

[smijus]

Hell yeah. That should be doable. There might be some sonic welding on it, but with a craft knife you should be able to work around those parts.

A front air diffuser would compliment it nicely.

 

[DaveButcher]

The actual car that is, not the power wheel lol

 

[sir21]

A front air diffuser would compliment it nicely.

Hah. Want pics of the scratched front lip? the diffuser won't last long.

 

[DaveButcher]

True. Lol.

 

[RIPnFX]

Hell ya you should do it, that would be dope

 

[sir21]

Well the Coop is gone. Sold it a few weeks back. Got this instead. Not sure if it will be a replacement, just couldn't pass up a deal since it only has 35k miles. Time to roll up the sleeves, not much damage, all parts were taken off, got to put it back together.

 

[la_fx35]

That's is nice upgrade Nick.

 

[GEE50FX]

Looks like a nice project Nick. Tell us more about it.

 

[sir21]

Thanks. Not really much to tell Wayne. Most parts that were taken off were included. Spent most of the day hunting down the missing/damaged ones.

 

[LEXFX]

Siiick!! Wheres the like button?? Lol

 

[sir21]

So... Got another Mini for the summer. Vinyl wrapped it myself. The wpar is 3M Satin Dark Grey. I will take and post some proper pics later but here are some before and after for now.

The grey looks real good on the mini. Awesome job
