The MOD's so far - & this is from someone who never mods

Postby maxg765 » Wed May 19, 2010 12:52 am

Hello,

I have been driving since the age of 16. 38 today.

I have owned many cars during those years. Listed below
1984 Pontiac Fiero - remained stock
1991 Honda Civi si hatch back - remained stock
1992 Jeep YJ Sahara - remained stock
1994 Mazda MX3 Precidia V6 - remained stock
1990 Audi 90 - remained stock
1997 Subaru Legacy GT AWD - remained stock
1999 Suzuki Grand Vitara V6 - remained stock
2001 Volco S60 AWD - remained stock
2004 Honda Civic SI 4 Door - remained stock
2005 Volvo XC90 SUV AWD - remained stock


Currently own
1988 BMW M6 - STOCK
1997 SUBARU SVX - STOCK
1972 TRIUMPH STAG CONVERTIBLE - STOCK
1993 MAZDA RX7 - STOCK minus wheels & tires, it was cheaper to change
2005 VOLVO XC70 AWD WAGON - STOCK

I have never moded any of my cars and never had the desire to. It seems that I still have a preference to stock options/accessories. At least this is at present day, with MINI who knows where I am headed.

I've owned my JCW since April of this year.

So far:

First week or ownership
Huber Window tinting all around, including the two sunroofs
Checkered floor mats for front and back

I thought I was done....

Last week
Factory generation 2 GPS mount which swivels to either side of the tach
Factory black rally lights on front grill
Factory roof rack base bars
Factory aluminum roof basket (looks like a rally basket to carry spares)
JCW Factory Strut Brace

What I am considering next week
Carbon fiber hood scoop
Carbon fiber mirror caps
Carbon fiber rear tailgate handle
Twin Black Challenge Stripes (can't decide if I want stripes yet)

What I am certainly doing in the next week or so to protect the paint
Clear front 3M bra at C.A.R.S.
Clear light protectors from MOSSMINI


I even want to come up with a name for my MINI but I have refrained from doing so as I want my daughter to name it when she first sees it.


Oh well, so much for never touching my vehicles.
Regards

Max

2009 Factory JCW R56, Midnight Black/Black Roof, Aerodynamic Factory kit, Black Punch Leather Interior, Piano Black, Xenon, JCW Sport Suspension Upgrade, Clear Turn Signals, Rear Fogs, Arm Rest, Bluetooth/iPod USB

It's not going to get any better either. You'll keep finding reasons to mod. 8)

It's been 2 months since my last mod - I feel like I'm letting Pepper down. The to-do list / wish list is very long.
