Hey everyone, my name is Kevin, I own a 2005 BRG Cooper S and I just wanted to introduce myself to the forums since I don't really post that much on here. I am currently a junior at the University of Florida and I run the school's car club called "Gator Campus Car Enthusiasts." Before this Mini, I owned an '83 BMW 533i that I rebuilt with my dad and loved that thing. I look forward to meeting you all and seeing what you drive!

My mod list includes: Alta CAI, Alta 15% reduction, DDM Works diverter, Polyurethane upper engine mounts and solid metal lower mounts, One ball exhaust mod, BSH oil catch can, MSD ignition, M7 heat shield, Team Dynamics wheels wrapped in Hankook Ventus Evo2's, Power Slot rotors with RedStuff ceramic pads, stainless steel brake lines, Megan coilovers, Alta rear sway bar, Alta rear lower control arms, and TSW x-brace.

Here's some video of me driving around on some back roads where I live. Turn up the volume

Post some pictures of your cars so I can see what you drive!

 

Welcome to NAM, officially. Very cool about the University car club. I too was part of my Universities car club when I was in school. Great way to meet other enthusiasts. Is that a front splitter or lip that I see?

 

Thank you! It's definitely been a great experience for me and I have loved it. As for the splitter, it's a little fiberglass splitter that the previous owner had installed. I currently have it off because it got cracked due to some hidden bumps at night and needs to be repaired or replaced. Still debating on putting it back on because it scraped so much...

 

N2MINI makes custom ones. You could see if he might be able to make you one. Not sure if this is his specific one, but HERE it is in the marketplace.

 

Nice mods and what a great growl!

 

Thank you! That resonator delete really does make a difference in the sound

 

Welcome , like the video.

 

Thanks, I appreciate it!

 

I'm envious of your interior. Sounds pretty minor, but I really wish I had the 3-piece anthracite dash... one of the nitpicks of having an '03.
