Mods for My One

Hi All,

Im thinking of doing a few more mods to my One, i dont want to spend big bucks as im saving for a MCS, but i was thinking
  • Aero Side Skirts
  • Lowering Springs (around 30mm)
  • Milltek Cat Back
What i wanted to know was, if anyone had any pics of a Mini on 16" wheels lowered by 30mm, as i dont want it to be so low that it looks stupid. And also has anyone got any pics of a standard one pre facelift bumpers with any kind of aftermarket exhaust.

Regards David

Can't help with pics mate but I'm in exactly the same boat, I've got a One but with 15" and I want the Milltek, Aerokit, Eibachs and a Bluefin (great minds think alike) I'm debating whether or not my Black One will look good/bad with an Aerokit, because once I've got that will probs be a while before I get bigger alloys

Yours would look very good with an Aero Kit Sam!

Someone on here had a ONE on 15"s with an Aero Kit - think it was Jordan's brother (username Kaj?)

Jo said it in a nutshell
Nick said he's planning another one for very soon, can't remember the date he said but keep your ears open!!

As for the Aerokit I'll have a look at those profiles...
