Nicest mini I've seen outta VA other than a guy with a supercharged one that came through lynchburg once..had suspension and other mini upgrades I'm not familiar with lol. Yours looks real clean too, that black bumper goes good with the yellow. I think if it was all yellow it would start to soften the look of the car up. But yeah, I've never driven one, but with your suspension it definitely looks like it would hold it's own in the corners lol

Thanks Cobra.
I love the dumped look on Mini's.. I run 215/17's with almost no rubbing. I used to only have lowering springs and when i got coilovers it was like night and day with the stance change.
