Lol, you would not believe how well I treat my Mini (wheels not included) - it gets more money spent on it than I spend on myself. And it gets a nice warm garage to live in and everything!

Just done my brake pads - it was a right pain fitting the rears!

Sounds good - always good getting a parent to help out cos then if something goes wrong you can blame them. My old Cooper had chrome mirror caps and they looked great - was considering getting some for the BEP at one point but couldn't afford it at the time. Am thinking of some black mirror caps to go with my black wheels.

I got them and fitted them... only took us a few mins on one side and more on the drivers side... was weird.. just couldn't reach the clips even with moving the mirror every single way..
They look really good tho... I am going to take some pics, went to b4 but my batteries were dead

The Mini United ones would look really cool on your car - absolutely stunning, check them out on the mini united website.
