For Sale: A set of used 17 inch MINI BBS wheels, style R90, 7 inches wide, offset 48. These came off of a 2002 R53 Cooper S. They have seen lots of miles and show it. They are straight, but dinged, scratched, touched-up and each wheel has a small bit of curb rash (from the previous owner, I swear....). They would make an excellent choice for winter tires. $350 for the set, delivered in the Baltimore/DC area. Shipping available at $40/wheel. Paypal preferred. PM if interested. Larger photos here.

I've got some MINI rotors as well as some BMW control arms and perhaps a brake caliper or two if you're interested.... --George

One person ahead of you. If he doesn't get them at the end of the month, I'll let you know. It will fit 06 R53, but I'm not sure the armrests are inter-changeable. It doesn't look like the older ones slide off, but maybe someone else knows for sure. Speakers are the same provided you don't have HK stereo.

Yes & yes.

For Sale: A set of used exhaust tips from a 2006 Cooper S. Polished up and in excellent condition. Came off of the car at about 50,000 miles. Will fit '02-06 Cooper S. Over $100 new from the dealer. Asking $50 shipped (lower 48). PM if interested, Paypal preferred.

Sold Two door panels from R53 Cooper S. Will fit years '02-'06, exact fit is '02-'04 (armrest changed for '05-'06). Note that the speaker grilles are for the standard stereo, not HK speakers. Upper speaker/door handle trim not included. More photos here. I was going to practice painting the trim on these before doing the ones in my car, but plans have changed and I no longer need the panels. Armrests are cloth. They are in good but not perfect shape. There is a small tear on the passenger panel along the edge by the window glass. It can be easily repaired if you know what you're doing. (I don't...) Asking $60 for the driver's side panel; $40 for the passenger side panel. Get both for $80. Shipping at cost possible, but likely expensive. PM if interested. Paypal preferred. Can deliver in the DC/Baltimore area.

For Sale: Three piece dash. Plans changed. I was going to practice painting and wrapping these before doing the ones in my car, but I've grown to like the red dash that I have. I bought these from someone who sanded two of them. I don't think they were all from the same set originally, but they are all in pretty good shape. Priced $30 each piece or $75 for the set. Shipping $10. Paypal preferred. PM if interested.

PM sent. Car still available.

Sold Ireland Engineering stainless steel exhaust for 2002-2004 R53 Cooper S. Single sided-design is considerably lighter than stock. Throaty sound, but does not drone. Switched back to stock so I can sell the car. (IE will sell you a single oval tip if you want.) The good: Easy to install. Just supply a new gasket, two bolts, and reuse your rubber hangers. The bad: You may need to bend the rear brackets for it to fit correctly. (If you bend the inside arm so it's perpendicular instead of parallel to the outside one, it will fit 2005-2006 R53.) The ugly: The front muffler is shot. I cut a hole in it to see what was rattling around and the insides are cooked and loose. You could either swap in a new muffler, resonator, or just a straight pipe. Located in Mount Airy, MD, $100/OBO if picked up. Paypal preferred. I can box and ship it FEDEX ground, but it won't be cheap... PM if interested.

Sent you a PM.

Sold Camber Plates

Chili Red Grille from '06 R53, the original Chili Red Grille that came with my 2006 MCS. The car only has about 47K miles on it so the Grille is in pretty good shape. (One of the 11 tabs on the upper grill is broken, but it isn't one of the important ones in the corners.) You will need some automotive trim tape to attach the lower colored slat to your bumper. $45 I'm going back to stock on one of my MINIs so I'll be listing the parts here as they come off the car. Shipping available at cost or can deliver in the DC/Baltimore area. PM if interested, Paypal preferred.

Sold: A set of four, R84 "X-Lite" wheels with tires. They came off of the '06 MCS I recently purchased. Had only 46K miles when they came off the car. The wheels are in great shape. No curb rash and only some minor scratches and brake dust. Wheels come with Dunlop Sport DSST 5000 all-season runflat tires. Two tires have about 4/16" of tread which I'm guessing is just under half. The other two have a bit less, closer to 3/16" but still more than the wear-bar. I can arrange to deliver in the metro Baltimore/DC area. Paypal preferred (or cold, hard cash.) Price does include centercaps (not pictured.) PM if interested. Sold.

Sold: A set of four floor mats for 2nd generation MINI (R56), like new. When I picked up my '06 R53 at Passport this past June they didn't have any R53 floor mats so they threw in these. They don't quite fit the R53 so I thought I'd put them up for sale or trade for some R53 mats. Cheers George

Almost done Spring Cleaning.... Sold: A used set of front and rear adjustable end links for R50/R53. I bought these from a fellow autocrosser about three years ago and never got around to installing them. From the looks of the ends, I don't think he had them on his car very long before he took them off and sold the car. They have a fresh coat of red ceramic paint. Asking $100 for both pairs; or either front or rear pair for $60 each. Price includes shipping to the lower 48 States or can arrange to deliver in the metro DC area. PM if interested. Paypal preferred. Thanks.

Sold: A set of used brake calipers from a 2004 R53 Cooper S. Cleaned up and given a fresh coat of red ceramic brake caliper paint. (I upgraded to JCW calipers.) These calipers also include a set of machined brass guide bushings which eliminate caliper twisting caused by rubber guide pin bushings for longer pad life and more consistent brake system feel. Asking $100 for the pair, including shipping to the lower 48 States, $90 if you pick up in DC area. Paypal prefered. PM if interested. Here's a link to more pictures.

For Sale: A set of 16 JDM Tuner Lugs for R50/52/53 MINI. If you purchase an aftermarket wheel and need a smaller lug nut, these work great. I had a set of 15 inch Konig Feather wheels and the standard lugs didn't fit. Sold the wheels, so I no longer need the tuner lugs. The top picture is what they looked like new; the bottom one what they look like now. Comes with a special socket. Good condition. PM if interested. Paypal preferred. $32 shipped.

For Sale: 3 Hankook Ventus Z214 tires, size 205/50R16. Tires were used for two events and have very little wear. Broke the bead on the fourth one switching wheels and now am running in a street tire class again. Read more about the Z214 at Tirerack. These tire are the C50 medium compound, more like a Hoosier R6 than an A6. They make excellent rear tires on a FWD autocross car. $25 each, buy two and get the third one free. PM if interested, Paypal preferred. Located in Mt. Airy, MD.
