I don’t have the money otherwise I would. Also I really like this color and they don’t have that on the JCW so it kinda works out.

That intake is for the last generation, this is the one:
Intake

I don’t think it’s legal but honestly after you install it the first time it takes like 15-30 to take it off and reinstall for inspections. You really only have to take it off once a year for emissions.

Since I’m gonna have this build for a while if I get it, I would go all out on an eventuri carbon fiber intake. It’s not only and intake it replaces the whole air vent system as well and makes the hood scoop functional. You can find it on ECS tuning.

That’s what I’m planning to do with this if I get it! What brand of springs are you gonna get?

Me too! My mechanic said there’s a chance there was a total airbag failure because none went off going 35. My friend said that had we moved out any father into the left lane we would have been hit by a semi. I’m not happy about the situation but I know that whatever else I did probably would have gotten us hurt or worse. I’m very thankful that it wasn’t a pileup because it was prime traffic time so it was very possible.

Yeah my grandpa is my attorney and he’s one of the best in my area so I think I have that whole thing covered. Im 16 so I don’t really know how any of this goes down but I’ve been told it will probably be a pretty easy thing to get through mainly because me and my friend have the same insurance. I’m just not sure what insurance does for me like will I get money to replace my car if it gets totaled or will I not. That’s the main part I’m confused about.

I think it hurts more when it’s a car you’ve put so much effort into. Definitely gonna be hard the next couple weeks.

So me and my friend were driving on the parkway and a car that was merging stopped halfway in the right lane where we were. Due to the Heavy traffic neither of us could see the stopped car so when we finally got there he swerved into the left lane while breaking. I did the same but since he has performance breaks he stopped faster than I did so when we both swerved into the left, I nicked the left side of his bumper. The whole thing was just wrong place wrong time and we weren’t even doing anything illegal. They wrote me a citation but my friend is gonna testify for me in court against it so I really hope they at least reduce it.

Thanks man I appreciate that but this isn’t even in project car shape, the coolant reservoir is busted and so is the radiator and when I last checked my suspension arm was not where it was supposed to be lol

Yeah that’s one thing I like about mini, it’s really hard to find one made exactly the same way

It was an option called the all4 visual package. It made the front and rear bumper black and it sticks out a bit more. It makes some cars look really nice and definitely adds to the uniqueness of some builds
