Any ideas how much and how easy they are to fit?

Cheers.

Try sending Chris at Woodmans a PM. I did have a quick scout round in the group buys section but can't see a price for just the grille.

Or, look here..........

WOOOOO!!!!!! My Thread :biggrin:

The aerokit grille Lohen do is only for the Gen1 MINI, and I have not heard anything news about them doing one for the R56.

Keep an eye out on eBay too, because they do pop up from time to time.

The grill on its own without the surrounds is surprisingly cheap, i cant remember exactly how much it cost me but it was less than £30. If you want the black surrounds too it will be more than double that.

I fitted mine a couple of weeks ago now, stuck with the chrome surrounds. The fitting is a piece of cake, some trim clips on top and plastic clips at the bottom. You have to take the bottom chrome surround off first.

You always pay more than it's worth on fleabay ;)

From what I remember the grille and surround are under £50 and fit a treat with no mods (if you don't have the full aero kit) Black grille and chrome surround looks good too :D

Thats what I did - looks better on a darker MINI IMO - but in the case of jordangpboy who has a PW/B , sticking with the black surround would probably work better.

I thought you had all black surround Helen, or have you changed it recently?

Just what I was thinking Ms Scoobs;)

Great minds and all that..........;)

Tom - I did have the black surround to start with, but having a black car and black grille and silver spots looked odd, so I put the chrome surround back on to balance everything out.
