New Mini

Hey Guy's, I thought I'd post a few shots of my 04 Cooper S I just picked up yesterday. What a fun car to drive. It's completely stock for now, but I have a few mods planned.

Great pictures!

Based on the images and your avatar it would appear that you are a professional. I'd ask what camera set up you have, but it would be so far over my head that it would not mean anything

Congratulations and enjoy. I am going to snap some photos of my 2007 S soon. I have only had it for three years now and never taken any pics other than the day I brought it home.

Beautiful car. Very well captured through your pics. Long live R53. What mods may I ask. Reason I ask is that my wife's ride is an R52 nearing its end of warranty and I will eventually be modding it.

Thanks. I have a Canon 5Dmk2. These were shot with my 70-200 2.8L lens with a polarizing filter.

I don't have any mods yet, but will be swapping the chrome grills for black ones, some tint, stubby antenna, Koni shocks with lowering springs, 17's, rear sway bar, intake, exhaust, pulley and an ECU tune. Just a few mods as you can see.

Thanks Jody. I've been trying to come up with a name, and plate idea. I was going to go with ACTLSIZ (Actual Size) for plates.

Love the mods you have planned and IMO it will be money well spent. Go with the H&R bars as they come with teflon coated bushings so they won’t ever squeek or need lubrication. I’ve heard reports of several other bars including Alta squeaking after a few thousand miles.
