Which scoop is that? It doesnt' look like the M7 Ram Intake, but maybe it's just the angle?

cheers,

Maybe JCW CF scoop? It looks to me like a "stick on" that covers the original, hence the more "stuck out" appearence it has. Could be wrong though.

If it won't clear a finished 2x4, it's TOO low!

Alta Springs: I have had them installed for about 10k miles and I think the car is actually a tad bit lower now that the springs are worn in.

Honestly, not sure.

50417-2 MINI COOPER S H&R COIL OVER KIT from Turners (about a grand) is what the invoice says, I was unaware there were multiple flavors.

Just got mine done by Detroit Tuned yesterday! HSport springs and Koni yellows. It's actually MSFITOY's former suspension. I love it!!
