I’m planning on upgrading what I’ve done with the lights (was rushing to get ready for a car show) and a couple of other little details, but other than those the exterior is finished… Now moving inside for some cool features.

Love how the Mini looks. Your Roof Rack is amazing, the mini lightbars
make it really pop.
Thank you! I really thought I was onto something unique–I pretty much did this in my own little bubble and then started seeing Ectos EVERYWHERE
And I’ve found 7 MINI Ectos. Three of us in Clubmans like mine!
The small light bars were a concession actually… I originally wanted two Wolo Infinity (full size!) bars and loved how it looked in my scale drawings, but the weight/amperage were too much. I bought some blue lenses for a full size bar and am planning on making housings for the small bars.
It looks awesome! I really like how you twisted the original elements to fit your vehicle’s design, rather than trying to follow the original outline 1 for 1 - the phone number and such on the back doors instead of the fenders looks great.
Thank you! Honestly I spent a lot of time (really mostly only the waking moments) thinking about the backstory of the idea and had this whole thing in my head :lol: So it definitely wasn’t an attempt to be Ecto-1; it was what would a new franchisee using leftover gear from the late '90s do with a Clubman. I liked how the bits that look small on -1 look giant on -0.5. ![]()
