So far it's only NM sport springs, potenza's instead of run-flats, M7 strut defender/brace, and that rear seat latch bar. TSW x-brace next...


any more info on that bar? i tried a quick ebay search and didnt find anything.

The car has such a dual identity with chrome and black, instead of blacking the hole thing out, I decided to embrace it with the rims and bonnet stripes.

Tata, seriously....

Your Clubman is beautiful. Very nice work! I love the mustachioed barn door, like a sir.
