New to NAM
I'm new to NAM. I've had my 03 mini s for about a year now and just started doing my mods. I have alta upper and lower rear control arms which were on the car when I bought it. Just installed my new WMW strut tower brace. Hammering down the mushrooming on the top of my struts was not fun. I'm trying to do my suspension before I get into the power mods. Any advice would be great

The engine bay will be painted soon when I install a new motor. So it doesn't look that great right now with the blue engine bay.
