I've only done two mods so far, but between the two, the Rubbertite floor mats. The OEM mats in my car were just terrible.

I got Rowan two weeks ago today, so I haven't done much. I think the best mod so far is the Pulsar third brake light flasher, which I installed yesterday. It will make me feel a little safer when driving my little car in heavy traffic!

My best mod was the Accessport. This eliminated the throttle lag and gave a nice bump in midrange torque that makes the car more fun to drive.

She's a "Justa" Cooper if that makes a difference, with this mod. I no longer have to use the Sport Button or worry about fuel mileage!!

Weight savings is the best mod, it is free. All the way from removing backseats to the driver losing weight.
