I scrape on everything. One of these days a fast-food 4" drive thru grade is going to take out my Hamann front splittler.
There's just enough ground clearance to slide your food under the front. This drop is only with H-Sport springs, 215/40/17 KDW2's & 17" SSR's.

It's was hard to choose, but I'm planning to go wider 
just let me find a new wide bodykit
Still those that you hooked me up with man check the wheel and tire thread for new tire sizing 
(went to 225/35/18 from 225/40/18)
No side markers required in this town my friend 
... just "pure silver"
Man it took me long to decide on this spoiler...it's a hate/love thing... I really can't find one that suits the MINI perfect other than the stock. I'm not saying this is no good, but I like how it looks on the car for now...until I find something new
What CO are you running Coen?

Lowered on 18's with Cross Coilovers. I will be going a little lower in the front soon. The front lip makes it hard to go too low.

The Cross Coilovers handle insane. The car handles like a cartoon! The ride is a little rough for me becaue its my daily driver for the track it would be perfect. I have the compettion springs but today I just installed the "street" coils. This should make it more of a daily driver but still good for the track.
I love how you can lower the car to the ground and still have full travel. They aren't cheap but they do come with front camber plates so in a way they are cheaper than Bils and many other coilover stystems.
They have adjustment from 0 to 15 (15 being the hardest) I have them on 3 in front and 4 in the rear.
Here are the spring rates
Comp coils
400lbs front
337lbs rear
Street coils
337 lbs front
225 lbs rear
