One of the original parts first manufactured by M7 Speed back in 2002 is now even better. We have taken this tested and proven design and improved on it. The Gen 1 MINI SRP Kit (Strut Reinforcement Plate Kit) now includes six custom made self aligning acorn nuts for full thread engagement and extra holding power.‚ The M7 SRP Kit will protect your strut towers against mushrooming caused by destructive potholes, unmaintained roads and aggressive curb jumping.‚

Extremely durable, the 1/2" (13mm) thick plates come in sets of two (left and right) and are made from CNC machined aircraft grade 6061-T6 aluminum that is beautifully black anodized to prevent corrosion and and some underhood beauty. Our plates cover the‚ ENTIRE‚ surface of the strut tower top (not just where the upper strut mount meets the tower) to evenly distribute suspension loads over the largest possible area available.

Through the years Gen 1 MINI owners have had one common complaint: the strut towers mushroom after heavy suspension impacts or after the addition of low aspect ratio tires or coil over kits. The MINI's shock towers deform and bend as much as 1/2" [13mm] upwards, throwing the suspension out of alignment and making it difficult to realign.‚ The problem will most likely show up as a slight pull either left or right when driving depending on which strut tower is buckled. The M7 Strut Reinforcement Plates (SRPs) solve this problem by sandwiching the sheet metal between the strut top plate and an extra thick SRP, creating an extra strong composite top surface that will not bend.

If mushrooming is your problem or concern, then the M7 Strut Reinforcement Plates offer the solid solution. Adding the M7 SRPs to your MINI is an inexpensive preventative measure to what could be an expensive fix if you let a repair shop or body shop attempt it.. Thousands of sets have been sold over the years.

Installation is an easy 10 minute DIY project. The installation kit includes simple instructions that also address fixing existing mushrooming.‚

  • One Left Hand strut reinforcement plate
  • One Right Hand strut reinforcement plate
  • Six closed top self aligning acorn nuts

Please Note:The M7 Gen 1 SRP Plates will fit all R50 R52 and R53 base and S models

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I can breathe again — and my house says thank you 😂
Pattern Name: 20x20x1, Style: Merv 11
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I can breathe again — and my house says thank you 😂 These Amazon Basics MERV 11 air filters have been a game changer for my HVAC system. I installed them and immediately felt like my home went from “dust tornado aftermath” to “spa-day air vibes.” Whether it’s pollen, pet hair, or mystery dust bunnies lingering in the corners, these filters make the air feel noticeably cleaner and fresher. Installation was about as easy as ripping plastic wrap off a new gadget — pop out the old filter, slide these in, and suddenly the air quality goes from “huh?” to “ahhh.” The electrostatic pleated design grabs everything from sneaky dust motes to pet dander like a champ, and I can actually tell when the AC kicks on that the air feels crisper — in a good way. 🌬️ Between the six count and the solid MERV rating, this was a smart purchase that keeps my HVAC happy and my allergies way more manageable. If you want clean air without the hassle, these filters are a fantastic value and really get the job done. Highly recommend!

Amazon Basics MERV 11 Filters: Solid Performance Without the Premium Price
Pattern Name: 20x20x1, Style: Merv 11
Amazon Basics MERV 11 Filters: Solid Performance Without the Premium Price I’ve been using these Amazon Basics 20x20x1 MERV 11 filters in my home HVAC system, and overall they’ve been a very dependable option for routine filter changes. I like buying them in a 6-pack because it takes the hassle out of remembering to reorder every couple of months, and the per-filter cost is noticeably lower than the big-name brands at the hardware store. Installation is straightforward. The actual size fits my return slot properly with no bending or forcing, and airflow has remained strong. With MERV 11, these strike a nice balance for my setup — noticeably better dust and pollen capture than basic MERV 5 or 8 filters, but without putting obvious strain on the system. After about a month of use, the filters clearly show they’re doing their job, collecting a visible layer of dust and fine debris. A few things to keep in mind. The cardboard frame isn’t as rigid as some premium filters, and they’re a bit thinner than brands like Filtrete. They’ve held up fine for me during normal use, but I wouldn’t try to stretch them much past the recommended replacement interval. Also, if you have an older or low-powered HVAC system, MERV 11 may be more filtration than you need — in that case, a lower MERV option might make more sense. Bottom line: These Amazon Basics MERV 11 filters are a practical, budget-friendly choice that deliver solid filtration and good airflow for regular HVAC maintenance, as long as you stick to timely replacements and don’t expect premium-brand rigidity.

Perfect fit, lasts a long time, and a great price.
Pattern Name: 20x20x1, Style: Merv 5
These filters are a perfect size, they're well-made (I don't notice any more dust in the house than "normal"), and so far, they last longer than I had expected (they're made to last 30 days, and the one I have in has lasted 90 days). So for this 6-pack, what should have lasted 6 months may actually last more like 3 years! And these are the best deal I could find on the internet. I'd definitely recommend them.
