The front air dam is already scraping everything, so lowering it more isn't going to be much worse...
. Lower CG! I may end up raising the car another 1/2 inch to compensate, but it depends on what it looks like. I've never seen a lowered MINI on 16's in person. We'll see!

My neighbors now think my MINI is totally busted, as I scrape going over a slight undulation in the road. Nope, not busted; totally slammed!

hahah there is a point where your car becomes a head turner simply based on the scraping noises it makes. Everyone looks to see what happened
