After years of ownership, there still aren't any good mods

ive been searching high and low for mods to the f56 2014 Cooper over the last few years and man, talk about a letdown.

Basicslly you can a) sticker your car or add what essentially is a clip on plastic sticker...

you can b) add a cold air intake... basicslly only one option for that and this won't really up the performance any.

You can also c) change wheels (woopie). I might as well get some volks rather than the mini options (if they would fit)...

you can d) add a sway bar / toe links (might actually be the only worthy mod for the entire lineup).

You can... e) buy some driving lights. This is mostly cosmetic ...

and lastly, you can f) buy random stuff to fill up the inside of the car and trunk.


where are the front and rear aftermarket light kits? Where are the body kits? Where are the supercharger or turbo turnkey kits? Where are the aero kits? Where are the nav / stereo upgrade kits... how about some old style side mirrors or unique windshield wipers.

Very depressing that there just isn't anything worth doing

is this your website or something? I don't see any mini options whatsoever from the drop downs for mini.
I do see a Lotus (1) option, which i clicked, but then the page said there were 0 options available.

We have a tune for the Cooper that will turn it into S-power level (adds 33 WHP and 33 WTQE):

Yeah, I took a crash course in Chinese and moved to China so I could scam you out of $500. LOL - definitely my website, I kid you not!
