just little update over the last week i've fitted the wheel arches what a nightmare of a job, the pictures do not show the finished job.

front suspension is all tighten up brake hoses fitted driveshafts installed caliper fitted

i've tried to get mini as low as possible but the pictures show the car with it's front hi-lo's as low as they will go but still had to modify arches
