and now my new pride and joy,

plans are just drop it 35 mm on eibachs, k&n pannel filter, space rear wheels by 10mm
possibly a full miltek but time will tell..ooo and re print the rear bumber decals so mainly black with stainless dots and black out the chrome in dark grey to match the wheels

Very nice! :cool:

Get rid of those orange side repeaters though! I'd also swap the chrome boot handle for a plain red one and fit a rear spoiler - the one from the R53 Cooper S looks great and would really finish your car off I reckon. :)

Oh, and welcome to the forum!

Cheers guys went to go get the springs and filter today but not in stock so hopefully should be in next weekend

i agree about the spoiler but i want the aero spoiler instead of the s one i think..

but either way haha re did the rear bumper inserts last night matt black with stainless dots

I'm tempted to start wrapping bits (I'm a signwriter) like the boot handle belt line lighht surrounds etc Want to put my own stamp on it lol but keep it clean

I think it sounds interesting - a pure white MINI looks brilliant, I've seen a few wrapped now. :D
