          I'm liking this so far, keep it up.

          I also have a Mini (R50) on APs. How are you finding the Silver Project control arms? Mine knock and creak all the time so they're being swapped for Direnzas.

            I love where this is going! I would like to own a mini and slam it,but from what I heard they are not very reliable.
            You should invest in some proper wheels and you will take this build to the next level.

              thing looks pretty cool, I like the lip but i think it'd benefit from black bolts on the splitter

                @Mehowski oh yeah the black bolts, im still not sure about this, maybe they will come with the next wheel setup, dunno yet

                @valimihairo mine is very reliable, i got 130k kilometers on it and so far so good

                @el97 they arent mounted... don't need them for this setup, i just buyed them to fit the wheels but as they made in good i decided to stay on the oem ones
