Hey All!!!
New to the forum, but not car modding/detailing/forums/meets, currently running two cars in the family.
Mini R56 One - Is my wifes, standard car and I will be posting about later... :thumbs up:
Audi 2014 S3 Sportback (ino ino) but I am looking/need to trade it for a Clubman SD or Clubman D asap. Was my first factory order and I love, love, LOVE the car but the petrol bill and general maintenance is killing the bank account.
Question is my Mrs doesn't get modding, at all, even questioned me changing the wipers to aeros :argh: So what mods can I do on the Mini One & in the future the Clubman without her knowing/realising/seeing the car off the road for a day or two - This has got to be a total covert build or something that I can convince her is better for the car (just like the wipers :yes nod:)
I'm thinking...
Strut Brace front & back (covert)
Channel Swap the Audio (better for car)
Change the bulbs for brighter ones (covert)
Change the orange bulbs to silver (covert)
Stubby Ariel (covert)
Clear side reflectors (covert)
I have also seen swap outs for daylight running lights from the fogs - unsure on these as fitting might be an issue. (covert)
Currently out of the question... due to money and time
Alloys
Exhasut
Body Kit
Coilovers / lowering springs
Whats your tips/recommendations people?
Best,
