Does anyone know if the JCW aero kit is supposed to come with JCW entry strips?

I have just ordered my kit and the salesman seemed to think that it didn't come with them and that i would have to pay an extra £157 for them!

But I have always thought it did come with them. anyone know?

I just picked up my 08 S with JCW performance kit and bodykit. Suprisingly it had the JCW entry strips fitted. I wasn't expecting and never even considered I would get them. The dealer didn't mention anything so I'm unsure whether it was a freebie or you get them as standard with the bodykit.

My brother got entry strips with his JCW kit.

The dealer fitted them on my JCW side skirts without me asking for them

Thanks for your replies guys. I'll be onto the dealers first thing. They obviously don't know what they are talking about.

Mine also came with them as standard. Iv just checked with a friend of mine that works as a mechanic in BMW and he said the entry slips come in the package for the kit and come as standard not an extra.

yes.. deffinetly standard with the JCW Kit

And even if they weren't standard there's no way you should be paying £157 for them unless they are the illumintaed ones! Derek Woodmans (Sponsors on here) will sell a set for about £38 I think.

I bought these for my R56JCW seperately as i don't have the bodykit and IIRC i paid around £20-25 for the pair.
