M7 DDM Cold Air Intake (Cooper)
Our Price: $185.00

ike the Cooper S version, the DDM MINI Cooper CAI surrounds a dual stage filter in a unique steel wall design which provides the highest resistance from engine heat. The UNI dual stage foam filter can be re-used and re-oiled and provides a lifetime of service on your MINI. The chosen filter is oversized to give plenty of filtering capacity without sacrificing air flow.

The DDM Cooper CAI Installs quickly with simple hand tools. The system does not require you to cut any factory parts, which allows your car to be returned completely to stock if needed.

The DDM Cooper Intake is available in a black powder coat to give it a subtle appearance inside of your Cooper's engine bay.

M7 Aerogel EX Heat Shield
Our Price: $129.00

M7 constantly searches for innovative technology and ideas that can engineered to work for the MINI. Our latest brainchild, packages the ultimate heat-resistant material called aerogel into a heat shield designed to reduce heat soak from the exhaust manifold. Aerogel is nanotechology used by NASA for a variety of applications. Now M7 has taken the heat shield concept to a new level with the M7 Aerogel EX.

The Goal: Cut down on the ever-destructive heat soak in the engine compartment, without adding complex, hard to install parts that will eventually break down or fail in some way.

The Solution: The M7 Aerogel EX Heat Shield that fits on top of the existing aluminum heat shield above the exhaust manifold/header. It's so easy to install you can truly do-it-yourself.

The Testing: We decided to bite the bullet and invested in some serious data logging equipment and a Thermal Imaging Camera that would give us both hard numbers and visual feedback to the thermal heat load under the hood. The testing showed some amazing results. The data logging revealed an amazing 65.8º Delta in regular driving (both runs were identical) with some very small deviations in speed and the number of stop lights that turned red. The run was executed with mixed driving on the freeway at high rpm to generate as much heat as possible and stop and go traffic on surface streets.

Something else to remember is that the test was done with an M7 DFIC intercooler that will flush more cool air in to the engine compartment than a typical stock (or stock-style aftermarket unit) making the numbers even more impressive.

The Result: The coolant reservoir and the steering pump reservoir stays much cooler, along with the peripheral areas in the engine bay (including intercooler). Bottom line, the entire engine compartment remains much cooler during a driving cycle.

M7 180° F (82° C) Thermostat
Our Price: $44.00

Have you ever noticed how crisp and responsive your car was after that initial warm-up period, and wanted to keep that feeling for the rest of the day? The M7 180° F Thermostat is the solution. Not only does the engine maintain its fresh-start power, but also the under-hood temperatures are greatly diminished (see comparison table below). Now when your car sits after a hard run it won't cook and dry out everything under the hood as bad as it did in the stock configuration. This is great for the MINI owner that lives in a hot climate, or those that push their cars hard at the track or local twisty road.

Cold Weather Alert: If you encounter weather below 50º F or 10º C, please be aware that the ECU could throw a “check engine” light. This is no cause for alarm as the sensors are registering an anomaly and the thermostat is not harming the engine. The “check engine” light can be reset with a diagnostic tool or left as is. Please call if you have questions.
M7 Oil Catch Can
Our Price: $129.00

The MINI Cooper S is prone to excessive oil vapor within the intake system. If you've ever taken off your intercooler, you most likely noticed a build up of oil within each rubber boot sealing each end of the intercooler. Spray some cleaner into it and you'll quickly discover massive amounts of oil that build up inside the intercooler! This oil coating is not in itself harmful to the general operation of the engine, but it does affect the performance by limiting the efficiency of the intercooler in cooling the compressed intake charge, not to mention gumming up various sensors and components.

The M7 Oil Catch Can is CNC machined from billet aluminum and adds a sharp, industrial look to your engine compartment. All hoses, brackets, and necessary fittings are included, including an oil drain plug at the bottom of the can with a magnet to snatch out any possible metal fragments. There is also a sight tube to let you know the amount of oil in the can at any one time. The hoses come in black and are designed specifically to handle oil, unlike silicone, which will eventually bleed through, discoloring the hose permanently. Includes easy-to-follow installation diagram.
M7 Air Plate Diverter (R53)
Our Price: $159.00

The M7 Air Plate Diverter (APD) is another standout piece for the MINI owner looking to fill voids in the form and function categories of their vehicle build-up. The APD is designed for the best fit over the bumper and is made of strong, yet lightweight carbon fiber that is then coated in a fade-resistant resin clear coat.
Installation of the APD is extremely simple, needing only to attach to two existing bolt locations directly above the front bumper line. Installation will result in better airflow through the radiator, AC heat exchanger, and engine bay (this includes the heat-producing monster we know as the supercharger). Ultimately, the MINI owner will experience better response from the air conditioner, less heat soak in the engine bay, and even a cleaner engine bay because of the redirected air.

When used in conjunction with the Ultimate Lower Grille and Ultimate Upper and Middle Grilles, the M7 APD will greatly enhance the airflow into and inside of your MINI's engine bay.

M7 Ultimate Lower-Front Aero Grille
Our Price: $169.00

You shelled out the extra dollars and went for the more aggressive factory aero kit - but to your surprise (or not) the kit came with a big plastic grille. Many MINI owners have been in this situation and M7 has heard your calling for an addition to our Ultimate Grille selection. We are proud to offer the stunning M7 Ultimate Lower-front Aero Grille! Like all of our other grilles, the Ultimate Lower-Front Aero Grille is made of mild steel with a hot zinc coating and then coated with your choice of an ultra strong layer of either black or silver powder coating. The Aero Grille allows better engine cooling by replacing the restrictive stock plastic piece with a stronger, more aggressive-looking, fully open mesh grille. Make your aero bumper really shine and put the competition to shame with the M7 Ultimate Lower-Front Aero Grille!

The M7 Ultimate Grille line has been a huge success for us because it features the best built and, without a doubt, the best fitting Mini Cooper S grilles on the market. Held down with extremely durable stainless steel fasteners, the Ultimate Grilles require no zip ties or other nasty short-lived devices for attachment to the car. The shape of each grille is dimensional – featuring compound curves instead of being a flat, non-dimensional steel contraption. No Home-Depot-Quality modifications here!

We are so sure about the quality of this product that we offer a two-year, no questions asked warranty.

These pieces are direct replacements for the factory pieces.

M7 Coilovers
Our Price: $1,499.00

When we started engineering the M7 Coilovers, there were specific design issues that we wanted to address. Our other goal was to build an excellent shock at a very fair price point . . . and we believe we've done just that and more.

Issue #1: Dynamic ride and handling capabilities with exceptional compression and rebound control.
Issue #2: Knobs that are easy to adjust without removing the coilover from the suspension.
Issue #3: Class-leading performance at an affordable price.

The M7 Coilover System is a mono-tube, nitrogen gas pressure shock. The coilovers feature 15-position compression and rebound “click” adjustments, plus height adjustable settings. Addressing our design issues, we made sure both the front and rear adjustment knobs are extremely easy to access, plus the adjustments are easy to feel with the “clicks” so you know exactly what’s going on. The shocks are clear anodized aluminum that gives them a matt silver look.

Spring rates were chosen to give outstanding drivability both on and off the track--240 lbs. front and 280 lbs. rear. We also offer custom valving and spring rates ranging from 230 lbs.-900 lbs. Keep in mind that custom orders will add extra time for delivery and an additional charge for the custom valving and springs.
