Any more pics of your Mini? Love to see some more of the front...
Am trying to decide if I want to black out the lights/rings to match my JCW grille.

Wow. THAT mini is owned by a girl. Wow.
Awesome!! What a lucky boyfriend you have.
How low do you want to go? If you wanna go SLAMMED then go coilovers... If you want an easy lowering, go H&R. In my (humble) opinion, they make the best.

Hey! its AstroB from SIZE.
Go with coilovers, possibly H&R.
We have a sponsor for our club locally and they can hook you up with H&R Coilover.
Car's looking good

Congrats!!! Very nice. I love the factory aero kit! In fact, I am planning to order my next MINI with it.
Can you do us a favor and post a couple more pics from the front and back at a low to mid angle so that we can see how these bumpers cover the underneath portion of the car?

Big congrats. Hahaha, I thought the same thing after vowing 10 years ago to only be an AMG owner. Gas prices won out; car will pay for itself in 120K miles over the mileage I'd get w/another AMG...
BTW, white with white wheel arches look soooo hot with black rims... hint, hint...

The LEDs are more a xenon white, but come out blue on camera

They are LEDs from oznium.com They are actually a xenon white, but they come out blue on camera depending on the lighting
