JC Motorsport Race Filter fitted to my MCS. - it's brilliant - much better performane and noise especially supercharger whine at from low revs and much more defined at high revs - without the meladramtics of the ALTA - sucking and whooshing at part throttle. This is a much better fit to my OEM++ angle on modding - pics to follow or might write a MINI review once I have completed further testing

Having listened to your advice Pobsey, it is going better than I expected. I thought I would manage to make a pigs ear of the painting but followed your guidance and........well see for yourself:



These are waiting for their clear coat (this weekend) then fitting and some pics, including new Wipacs, to show them both off.

Modified my rear '03 brake lights to turn on the fog lights when I brake too. Fog lights can turn on seperately still. Looks great and its safer too!

Fitted my GTT manifold last weekend. Sounds beefy on my JCW.

They look great. That is one sweet looking MINI.

Is that the final piece or are there any more bits to go?
