CONSIDER EVERYTHING SOLD.
I hope to have all of these parts available for sale shortly, after switching to coilovers. Call dibs now and get them before spring and autocross / track season.
I hope to have everything off the car sometime mid-March at the latest. Prices sorta negotiable in some instances. I've linked to where these items can be bought new, for reference. All items fit 2002-2006 Cooper and Cooper S, plus the 2007 convertible, as far as I know.
PENDING SALE 1) Helix/RDR adjustable camber plates: Used, but in perfect working order. (There isn't really anything to wear out on them.) Some scuffs and marks from an uncaring alignment shop. Currently on the car, can take pics of the tops though if need be to seal the deal. Don't skimp out on fixed camber plates, especially at this price. My initial alignment was -2.2 camber up front, it was heavenly, and I had more room to go. (yr results may vary, blah blah blah)
These retail for $449+S/H at Helix. I would like to get $250 for them, shipped.
2) Koni Sport adjustable shocks: I have had these on the car for less than 10k miles. I have been very impressed with them. They are a marked improvement from the stock shocks, and being able to adjust rebound is a great added bonus to fine tune. Because of their limited use, they've obviously got a lot of life left. (And then there is Koni's lifetime warranty!)
The only negative with these is that some of the yellow paint has been scraped off, mostly on the bottom of the fronts. I could spray them, or you could, but chances are the paint will just get scraped off again when you install them.
Oh, and the cheap plastic dials that Koni supplies with them are chewed up. I still have one for the rears I think, but the front one is worthless. This isn't a bit deal, since you can adjust them with pliers, or even your fingers. I slotted a bolt so that I could adjust the fronts through the camber plates. You can have it.
These sell new for $679+S/H at Outmotoring. I would like to get $525, shipped.
3) Koni Springs: I've been satisfied with these springs. I switched from my H-Sports to these when I installed the Koni shocks, so can't compare / contrast too much. Koni says the drop is 30mm all around, which translates to 1.18".
The spring rates for these are not published, however, the fronts looked very similar to the H-Sports (around 200lbs avg rate), and the rears looked the same or very slightly heavier. These are progressive springs. They are a gross teal color. As with the shocks, they've been on my car for less than 10k miles. Only minor wear.
These retail for $229+S/H at Outmotoring. I would like to get $125, shipped.
***
I'll knock some off of the prices if you buy two or three, and I'll knock some off if I don't have to ship. (Willing to meet halfway.) I'm asking a little more than I want for the camber plates and shocks, but that's to offset shipping costs.
Please private message.
Payment can be google checkout, paypal, check, money order, cash.
Thanks.

I have several interested parties in the camber plates and one for the shocks, but nobody is committed as of yet.
Here are pictures of the camber plates, installed. Most of what you see is dust and grime, and the full mark across is temporary marker. There are some surface nicks, however, as I previously stated.
