^ I think you can buy an official John Cooper Works kit for your MINI on the official website somewhere. I'm not certain though...

yup, you could get the John Cooper Works bodykit, there are two of them, but one was for the old one which looked very nice and for the new one, it looks much more ugly with those more rounded ends and stuff

this is the official mini website you could choose your country
http://www.mini.com/mini_worldwide/mini_worldwide.html

and i chose the USA which apparently havent added the works bodykit except for the GP version which is limited to like 500 units

minimadness.com
myminiparts.com
minimania.com

all of them are great, I hear there is a British company that for 14k pounds makes the mini be rw drive with a whole 330hp, which is obscene but eh people pay for it. Best for tunning is Mini madness they make it all and are cheap and mini does have a guarantee with them.

Also depends on where you live, myminiparts.com is actually located only 15 miles form my house, so I go there for my mods, its closer, and mini madness is of Oregon.

Between the 2006 and 2007 it depends on which you like more Supercharger or Turbocharger, apart form that the cars are identical, the 2007 has a higher hood, and is 5-6 inches longer for some reason, the interior is pretty much the same, everything else is the same. I have a 2006, but I want to test drive the 2007 to see if it is better or not.. Ill get back to you on that.
