Just Installed the Madness Lower Stress Brace for the MINI Cooper S, OMG night and day difference! It's quieter in the cambin, less rattles, plastic shaking, and car feels tighter when steering.

Next up is new wheels, I'm aiming for 16's" with a stretch and poke look.

 

Suspension upgrades are always a good way to go.
Are those 17's on it now? I've got 16's and hopefully
after I install my coilovers I'll get rid of a little of the
wheel gap. I've got till the 27th before I can get it in.

 

Yup 17s on it right now, after wheels going to get coil overs too. Probably vmaxx for now, little tight on the budget and just going to stance it, don't really care about how soft or stiff it is. That's what my M5 is for, comfort!
