I love em. Thats a hot MINI. All black, low, and mean looking.
Very nice. All you need is the aero kit!

Smooth?
My guess is I'm dropped about 50mm, I'll measure some day, I'm almost as low as my H&R coilovers go but I wanna drop it a little more in the front.

Man, I have always drooled over ur MINI. . .
I'm glad u stuck with the same rim. Very nice. Unfortunate, but nice.
U should take a nice B/W photo for the monthly contest.
I'm predicting a black MINI will win. . .
How else will you get the proper contrast?!!?!?

SICK, I always liked the way the 18s looked on your car. As with Kenchan I thought they were 17s in your teaser pic, they didn't seem like 18s. Oh well... Glad you stuck with the same wheels and with 18s! Looks good and, you should be AS LOW AS the H&R's go, not almost as low... hehe...
To answer someones question up there, I believe its about $700-800 for a set...

Thanks alot guys!
ET45 works great, no rubbing, but I did rub some for a little while but not anymore, nothing to be worried about.
Yup, my headlight rings are painted bodycolor.
