Aftermarket parts

Anyone know where I can get aftermarket parts. I have a 2018 Clubman JCW. I’ve had it since November 2017 and have been looking to upgrade.

Thanks

There is a link on the bottom of my signature that will show you all 24 vendors that are here on NAM. If there is an aftermarket parts that will work and not break on day 1, chances are they will know about them.

What are you thinking about, suspension first and then the motor?

Maybe engine first and work on the suspension next. Looking forward to switch out the hood scoop and maybe add some lights.

You may be surprised how much a difference in handling you can make for not much money. A rear sway bar should be high on your list if you like cornering.

enjoy your new MINI!

The NM 25mm sway bar can be found at ECS, Waymotorworks or Outmotoring.

Just tried the waymotorworks links below and they both didn’t work. Do you have different links I can try?

Thanks isamin

any chance you could direct me to a website for the items you mentioned. I’ve never put aftermarket parts on a vehicle I owned before. Since getting the Mini I keep getting asked if I am going to. So I guess it’s time to 😁

I've been hot rodding cars since 1957 and have tried all sorts of things but the best bang for the bux (approx $500) has been what I listed.
Even if you have NO mechanical experience it will only take you 1/2 hr. to do both mods; they are undetectable and easily returned to stock form. Should you sell the mini you could remove the parts and get $300 second hand.
The enjoyment of nailing the loud pedal relative to bux & time is well worth it with none of the hassles car modding ensues.
See WHINES post for listings of reputable suppliers.

Thanks a million isamin. I really appreciate the info. I checked both upgrades and sounds like even I can install them lol. Looking forward to seeing how they work.
