Just a wild photochop work. The MINI is almost half way there with the Signal Green paintjob. It now needs more GT3 RS-esque features. Though Duell AG already have ready-made versions that resembles the look, unfortunately it’s for the R56 versions. The earlier R53 versions don’t posses the same look.
It’s still a photoshop work. So no promises. But it is the look that i desire most for the MINI.

Here are some updates on the MINI. The pre-facelift xenon headlights have made way for the newer projector versions. As expected, the MINI now looks 5 years younger. The projectors also provide significantly better , farther, beams plus the cut-off that only projectors can provide.

Just last Friday, the Malaysian chapter of Europrojektz, decided to do a small shoot. The Monsoon season didn’t stop us shooting in the drizzle. Fortunately, the pictures came out well and well worth the effort.
The shoot was done in a local shopping mall, Sunway Pyramid, top floor – car park. The parking lot was far from empty. It was peak Friday dinner hour but we managed anyway.

Just a couple of weeks ago, a quick fix was done on one of the wheels. Since these Ultraleggeras were black, it’s going to be easy. The wheel weren’t even removed for the job. All that was needed was some sandpaper, black and clear spray cans, some paper tape and some quick drying cement epoxy, the affected wheel area was sanded down, pits and valleys filled with epoxy and sanded smooth.

DuelL AG has recently collaborated with MINIMAX to create their very own gauge faces. I think they are probably the best 2.0 looking dials available. Though MINIMAX’s current line of “old school american radio” faces aren’t too bad either. But it’s a shame these DuelL AG items doesn’t support the R53. Looks like more and more cooler parts are now made for the R56 and up.

Here are some pictures from Sepang. it was a double photoshoot. I have to say, the palm sized Canon 500D was fantastic at its default “P” mode. Even shooting against the sunset, the 500D captured the scenes extremely well.

Had a opportunity to park the Mini this close to a real GT3 Rs. Too bad about the Picture, the E71 packs the worst phone camera ever.

From the left, an S3, MCS, Cayman S. As Malaysians await for the JPM Berjaya Hillclimb trials, 3 psyched-up Euros pound the Bukit Tinggi hills for a quick shakedown. Not realising the colour coordination of a traffic light post, there were also a certain specialness within the cars being a turbo 4WD, supercharged Front wheel drive and mid engined rear wheel drive.
