At that age it comes down to driving the car and having a good time. Not a W-Body, but as long as you set the trunk right and she leads with her ass end, she will do fine.

Ive never built a mini so this is all foreign material

Ive never built a mini so this is all foreign material I can’t say really since I haven’t ran one before, but I’d dimple the “frame” at the halfway point between the bumper bracket and the beginning of the hump. Then prebend at that spot

Also if you check around, I do believe someone out there is making harnesses/ecm setups for the eco-tech and non eco-tech engines. Also can always do the security reset by using the key and ignition, takes awhile which can suck but is an option. Good Luck 😎👍
