Hey guys, i purchased my first Mini two weeks ago. I snagged an 05 S with the automatic tranny. I'm looking to lower it and i have wheels already for it too, bbs rs replicas. I'm also going to go with the vmaxx coilovers.

My only issue i dont want to install anything until i get some protection underneath and every skid plate i find from a vendor specifies for manual transmission only. I cant seem to find anyone else who has tried to put a skid plate on an automatic r53 so I'm a bit stuck right now.

If anyone has any leads on a skid plate or if they know if i can indeed make one of the manual only ones work it would be greatly appreciated.
