Went on super easy but had to contact CS for retorque specs. It's slightly more stable in cornering.

I had a bit of disappointment today when my new hitch arrived - it was not the correct model for my car.
In retrospect, I looked back at the ordering page and found that it was my mistake but I could see why. I searched for a hitch for a Mini-S R53 and it took me to a 1001 which is for a non-S R50. The model numbers for the hitches and the cars they match up with were at the very bottom of the page, which I didn't see when ordering. It would have been very helpful if the drop-down menu had not just the hitch model number (1003) but the car model as well (R50, R53...) to help avoid this confusion.
It cost me return shipping and another week or more of wait. Not fun.

I've made numerous purchases and have been satisfied with all of them.
My only disappointment has been my purchase of the black gas cap cover. The color has faded big time and I've owned it less that 6 months.

One of the best providers for Mini needs. I easily found the replacement headlight trim and 3rd brake lite and shipping was fast. The light was damaged and they quickly sent a replacement.
I just installed the NM Engineering Lowering Springs and am extremely pleased both with the looks, ride and the handling. The car lowered approximately 1.2" and looks like the photos above. No rubbing or grinding at any time.
