How come I never see Mini's with 18" inch wheels on NAM? Locally I see Mini's with 18" inch wheels, strange?!?

 

DRAG rims;Conti 205 55 EZ16 DWS rubber and CNT Racing exhaust.

 

Why offset are your Drag Wheels? Thanks.

Radical difference in ride comfort compared to Bridgestone Turanza runflats.;handling seems firmer(wheels are lighter than OEM)

 

I also ordered the TPS rebuild kit;the wheel installation kit and I painted the silver valve stems and caps flat black.

Did some work on my 08 MCS yesterday :D Going to bring her a little lower after the springs settle.

Needed to mount this beast low down and securely. Found a mount on EBay (where else) that bolts to the passenger seat rail. It could be mounted to the torx bolt at the front end of the rail. I drilled a 3/8th hole and through bolted the fitting nearer the end of the rail. This stiff spring type mount is perfect for the heavy Garmin 7200.
IPhone sits in a cradle sunk into the cup holder.

 

Not the photo of the car, but just an update

 

I've considered doing that with my phone, but i figured having it all sit in that general area is invasive of the center console controls. Unless you never use the AC/window/lock/fog/DSC/Sport switches, i guess it'd be fine.

 

Just traded my 07' MCS in for a 13' JCW. It is pretty sweet I must say. I had the S for 4 years and never got tired of it. I would always find a excuse to drive. I am a huge MINI fan so why not have a JCW? I will miss my cooper S though.

 

double post.

 

I'd bet there's a pretty big difference in engine performance!

 

Installed strut brace.

 

From what I can see...that sure is purrty!! More pics please!

 

 

Did you need any wheel spacers with the Megan Coilovers?

MINI Mod done this month

 

I did not need those.

 

Excuse my crappy pics. Just found this forum yesterday and the hubs has been making fun of me for looking through posts for hours last night. Would like to share photos of our new baby Goliath. He's a month old now. 2013 mini cooper S with the sport package. I want my mini to look manly on the outside but girly on the inside, hence, the hello kitty matting.

My baby:

 

What do you got going on with your hood? Looks like vents behind the headlights with two air ducts in towards the center, never seen that design before.

 

You can see it right here.

 

Making the mold looked hard enough, that is a lot of hard work on your hood!
