hello there, basically i ordered 2 strips of leds from superbrightleds.com and since they only come in 24's, i cut it in half to make 12. then i took them and trimmed up the silicone material a bit to make them fit into the slot. then i drilled a small hole to run the power wire through the foglight casing and tapped them into the running lights. sorry i only have a couple pic of the finished product, no pics for install =/ enjoy!

well these led arent as bright as the audi ones, but they are ok(i guess its the picture that makes the light look bright). making some brake ducts would be a good idea

Thanks!!! I installed those springs yesterday morning.
UPS delivers my camber plates today. Gonna install those and get an alignment. Yeah, I know. I should've waited for the camber plates first before installing the springs. I couldn't resist. This car is soooo easy to work on, I was shocked. My previous cars have all been bimmers (e36 and e39), and i've done shocks and springs for them and it takes forever. With the Mini, there is so much room to work and everything is so light. I feel like i'm fiddling with a toy.
Anyway, i'm planning on setting my front camber -1.5 and rears -1.0. A bit conservative, but i'm planning on making it more aggressive to fit my needs.

There is an ever so slight difference, although the photo makes it look worse than it really is. Nothing compared to the difference it had with TSW's.

Hey everyone, the MINIs look great! It excites me to look at these because i just bought V-maxx coilovers. I know they are not the best coilover, but i did plenty of research and decided that they will work for me. So now to my question, what else should i buy improve the handling. Sorry if im jacking the thread for a minute. Thanks in advance for any imput!
