Schnitzer are now dealing directly in the UK, and not via BMW, this means that Schnitzers mods will become easily available to MINI owners this year ;-)

I wonder if that also applies to Schnautzers?

Cheers,
K.

The wheels are great, although a bit pricey....
I am really considering them as an option when my cooper s arrives

Isn't there any price for the tuning kit?

I didn't ask about the tuning kit to be honest.

We can supply all AC Schnitzer parts for the Mini. They also do the tuning kit for the Mini Cooper S, which gives a claimed 220bhp. Hope this helps.

Would you need colour coded arches? I like the rear diffuser.

I guess it depends on the body colour. I am still in two minds over which body kit to get. The JCW or the AC Schnitzer.

It looks like the diffuser just replaces the rear black plastic trim section. Thing is unless its the same plastic I guess it will look a bit crap. Shame as i think that this diffuser mated with the JCW front bumper would be my ideal.

Yeah that would sound good with that combo. I am a little miffed that the main website shows the AC kit fully painted yet the uk place had to find prices for that. Can you buy the JCW kit as bits or do you need to buy the whole lot?

Question Exterior

Vecchio,

What is the body kit spec of this vehicle... i like it V much !



Am thinking more and more about body decals and a rear wing. And those dunlop tyres are well sexy with the yellow text !!!! - can we paint the goodyear tyres with white text i wonder???

I certainly feel the need for a rear wing comin on as my back end flick out more

You can see my car as the thumbnail image for "Customer Project Cars" here...

Cheers,
K

It is a JCW kit. However, it’s been modified and fitted with a rear diffuser and front spoiler. Judging by the pics you may have to cut into the rear bumper to make it fit. All these "challenge parts" are available and can be fitted to the road cars. Ground clearance however may be an issue.

Regards Leo
