Just got my Eibach kit fitted along with some 215's, very happy with the results. Can fit 1 finger in the front arch and no fingers in the rear arch.

Ride is excellent, so pleased I went for the 215 45 setup, man I hated those runflats!!



Next on the agenda is some new wheels, I am thinking either Rial Nogaro or BBS LM replicas in 17x8" 35 offset.

Thanks

 

Nice ride! Time to upgrade the exhaust!!!

 

Looks good! Wish we could white out our tail lights here in the states. But i think its illegal or something...

 

I went around for more than 5 years with the OEM white tail lights. The cops never said anything about them when I got the occasional ticket. I went back to the red ones because I was tired of the clear.

 

Solid choices

The clear taillights look good. You don't see those around as often anymore.

 

Thanks for the comments guys, I am just trying my best to make it look a bit different to every single other mini out there!

But there is a thin line between being different and looking crap

Im a big fan of OEM+ and Euro, however I don't want to paint the car this time round as its never as good as OEM paint and it annoys me.

The devil is in the details

 

Look what I just got in the post

 

That shot of the wheel (which is gorgeous) looks as though you shot it through a filter or vaseline, or gauze or something. It has the same look as a movie publicity still of an aging star: sort of hazy or something. How did you shoot it?

 

They were made for the pre-2005 MINI's (Reverse light non-integrated).
I have a set that I never installed because I got too lazy to modify them to work with my 07 R52.

 

Just with a regular camera, must have caught the sunlight just right. No fancy effects or anything like that

Here are some other pics:









Oh and the lights are 2004 Genuine ones, that I modded to fit my 2005 model
