Don’t forget you added a big brake kit, rims too if I’m not mistaken. Car looks fantastic!

Brother, tbh, When i bought my Mini an year ago, I used to put lot of thinking. Then watching your videos and eventually, settled up for the 2015 Cooper S here in the states. Now slowly, I am working on facelift. But Cooper OEM Parts are expensive AF here. So taking it slowly! Thanks for all the amazing videos you put on this. Lastly, How do you source the parts? From Mini directly or?

Amazing! I own five Mini Coopers and didn't know you could upgrade all the parts like that. Great job. Nice JCW exhaust-that's not stock, you know. You should do a stereo speaker swap next and install those BimmerTech Alpha speakers, subs, and amp.

Try to get out of the Paceman and back into the Cooper ASAP. The N18s are nowhere near as reliable as the B48s.

Just take care of the Paceman . After 2012 MINI is much better. My Paceman JCW has got 130.000 miles/ 210.000 km on it.

Was the spoiler a straight swap? I think I saw you mention on another video you got it from AliExpress and asked them not to add the decals, just wondering if you had to adjust the factory fixtures at all or whether it was just pop-off, pop-on? Car looks awesome now though, glad you managed to come in under target/budget too!

Thanks for watching! Yeah it was a super simple swap! There is a bracket under the old spoiler that I had to remove, but an easy couple screws later, the new spoiler fit perfectly.

Unfortunately it only fits the hatch models. F55, 56, and 57. You may be able to find something similar for the countryman on aliexpress
