MINI DRIVE-IN DRIVE-OUT WIDE-BODY CONVERSION
DRIVE IN STANDARD. DRIVE OUT WIDE.
​
If you're considering building the ultimate Mini Cooper F-Series or R-Series wide-body, our complete Drive-In Drive-Out
service makes the process simple.
​
Bring us your standard Mini and let VAD Design transform it into a fully customised, wide-bodied build.
From the wide fender flares, wheels and tyres to suspension, exterior styling and finishing, we can take care of the entire transformation in-house.
WHAT'S INCLUDED?
Our Drive-In Drive-Out packages can be tailored around your individual Mini and specification, with a range of options available.
​
LOWERING & SUSPENSION
We offer a selection of suspension upgrades, including our recommended H&R lowering springs.
Depending on the chassis and model, H&R springs can provide approximately 30mm of lowering on standard R-Series and F-Series models, with JCW applications typically requiring a different specification due to their lower factory ride height.
Performance coilover systems are also available for customers looking for greater control over ride height and suspension setup.
​
WIDE-BODY FLARE CONVERSION
Our UK-manufactured GRP wide fender flares are professionally fitted to your Mini and can be finished to suit your build.
Choose from:
-
Body-colour paint finish
-
Matt black wrap finish
-
Bespoke finishing options available on request
-
​
Our matt black wrap option is particularly popular, providing a durable, understated finish that complements the original black
bumper and exterior plastics.
​
WHEELS & TYRES
Complete your wide-body conversion with our extensive selection of cast and forged wheels, available in a wide range of sizes,
widths and offsets specifically configured for our flare conversions.
​
We can also supply bespoke lightweight wheel options for customers looking to maximise the performance and appearance of their build.
Our wheel packages are carefully specified around the vehicle and flare configuration, with many applications designed to run without
wheel spacers, also a wide range of tyre sizes and specifications are available to complete your chosen setup.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Our Mini wide fender flares are UK manufactured from high-quality GRP (glass-reinforced plastic) and are produced to order.
Flares are supplied in a matt black gel-coat finish and will require professional preparation and finishing prior to installation.
Depending on your chosen specification, fettling, adjustment and modification of the OEM bodywork may be required
to achieve the correct fit and wheel and tyre clearance.
Professional installation is strongly recommended.
Please contact VAD Design before ordering so we can confirm the correct flare, wheel, tyre and suspension specification for your Mini.
