Satin Cooper S

Thought I'd share some pics of my MINI. She's a 2004 Cooper S with many mods.

We recently wrapped her in a satin black vinyl, and also won car of the month at EuroSunday, woo woo!

Great car! Tell us more about the mods to it.

Also interesting pictures too. What program did you use to make the pictures have that almost watercolor paint look. Really neat stuff!

Spyder - no need to wax. Paint will be as good as the day it went on with no paint damage or messy residue.

Drums - the pics are in HDR. The pics were taken by a friend of mine, so I don't really know the specs.

Here's a mod list:

2004 Satin black Cooper S
Navigation - Sport Package - MF Steering wheel
H-sport springs, sway bar and control arms
17 x 7 Enkei RPM2's wrapped in Bridgestone Potenza S-03 Pole Positions.
K-mac Camber Plates
JDM craftsquare carbon fiber mirrors.
Fully wrapped exterior
BBM prototype CF ram hood scoop
Alta 15% reduction pulley
Alta Large Top Mount Intercooler
Alta Cold Air Intake
Alta 2% LW crank pulley
Mini Mania Short Shifter
Milltek Cat-back Exhaust
Milltek Headers
Webb MS Unichip
Denso Iridium Plugs
Nology Hotwires
TCE Willwood Big Brake Kit Front/Rear
Stainless steel brake lines - 15mm spacers
Schroth 4-point rally harness
custom interior
Pilot shift light
Xenon interior and exterior bulbs
62mm Throttle Body
M7 Catch can
M7 Ultimate Grille

There's probably more that I can't remember

can wraps be done in a gloss to almost mimic the look of a paint job... perhaps Laguna Seca Blue??
