R60 What did you do to your Countryman TODAY?

On the height shown in the pics, yes. Under spirited cornering, the outer fender will touch the front tires. I originally had it set 1/4 inch higher, and had no issues. Since the pics, I've raised it back up by 1/8 inch. Haven't had a chance to hit anything at speed since that. The rears haven't rubbed.
Sitting about 2" or a little more lower than stock.

FINALLY! I can put my water bottle in the cupholder! Even with the can koozie! The cupholder kit is just a 2013 cupholder kit. But it is bigger than my 2012 copholders. It also came with a black ring so I was able to get rid of that hideous gray ring!
I also added some checkered flag accents to the wheel - not much else goes well with a brown and white interior!
I added the "S" logo start button too but didn't get a photo.
Everything is from outmotoring
Links if anyone is interested...
Steering wheel kit - I actually bought the one for steering wheels without buttons bc they are cheaper and I wasn't going to use the left & right piece - https://www.outmotoring.com/steering...ion-gen-2.html
Paddle Shift buttons - https://www.outmotoring.com/paddle-shift-cover-set.html
Start Button Cover - https://www.outmotoring.com/start-button-cover.html
Front cupholder kit - https://www.outmotoring.com/front-cu...169811186.html
this photo doesn't show it well, but I can still reach the switches easily
the cupholders are actually moved towards the seats so they don't intrude anymore with the controls.
I was actually surprised with the quality.

Hey, quick question, how the heck you do replace the side marker housings? I just ordered them so they arent in yet, but i can't find anything on them. Do i need to remove the top trim and the wheel well trim?

Added some weathertech window vents. liking the black on black look. need to get the windows tinted a little.
Minor hiccup as the windows didnt want to auto close the first few times. ran them up and down a bit while holding the vents back. hopefully it will settle in well.
Note: The passenger mirror does make contact with the vent when folded shut. May need to dremel out a little bit on the vent.

I don't know what I would do without my vents, I got lucky they came with the car when I bought it in March.

Here's what I did to my F60 the past three days. I may be wrong, but it's the first that I've seen through searches across forums and social media platforms that has been lowered on coilovers (or at all). Sorry for the photos with a car covered in grinding dust and in a dark garage...glamour shots coming soon after a few details are buttoned up.
