    Welcome! Here are a couple inexpensive mods that I think are important: a shorty antenna and a Whalen shift knob (or JCW shift knob if you prefer).

    If you are getting runflat tires, replacing them with non-runflat tires is the best thing you can do to improve handling.

    After that, the sky's the limit - enjoy!

    Thank you everyone for the warm welcome and the short advices. I just ordered the short antenna and will be looking forward for the JCW upgrades.
    Has anyone got an idea on where can I get the white sidemarkers like the ones that come with the S version?

    Welcome aboard, but you must stop calling your MINI "IT". Rules require that you think of a propoer name. :Thumbsup:

    Outmotoring.com is a good source for original equipment parts. Here are the lenses: Clear MINI cooper Side Marker Turn Signal Light Lens

    Welcome, gotta love Horizon Blue. Gotta get the silver bulbs to go with the clear side lenses, I don't have the lenses on my site but do have them in stock. As with most parts I don't have everything on the site some day I will, but I'm busy working on cars to work on the site.
