I saw this during my visit at IAA Franfurt at the MINI Booth. There as a full specced Works with seats, rims, engine etc.

Will be available in a couple a weeks. I must have for me;-)

Nice, they do look good :) I've got a set of the pre-production ones which somehow made their way into my hands ;)

They look good, very :cool: !

Monsta, you must have some contacts.............;)

Monsta,

They must have been fallen from a truck;-)

M.

Oh I like them.:D

Those are really :cool:

Must have :D

Nice, they do look good :) I've got a set of the pre-production ones which somehow made their way into my hands ;) Hi Monsta! is that a genuine "goose-neck" for the phone or have you made something similar??

Nope, its a dashmount bracket (using the mounting points of the radio) with the cables from the kit running inside a black flexi tube thing!

Strangely, the black tubing is identical to the tube which links the air con to the glove box, except the glovebox version is clear!

Any parts no. yet for the JC entry strips ??


TIA
Michiel

Very nice looking - pity these can't be part of the standard upgrade. :rolleyes: I guess if they added them it would push the price up :rolleyes: :eek: ;)

Just got this info from JC garages:

The JCW Door Sill Strip is now available from MINI dealerships. The part no. is '51 71 0 305 557'. You need to order 2 of these per car.

Although price and availability of this part is not known by de dutch ETK, my first order is out;-)

Michiel

that part number is not recognized by the GB/AG system yet....

Anyone seen these? I saw a pic on a JCW yahoo site and the were the metal plates are on the indside of the door sills, but they had "John Cooper Works" instead of the normal "Mini Cooper S" logo.

Can anyone help?

Thanks.


Jones.

Not heard of these, I don't think they are official stuff. I did ask about these when I picked my JCW up, it was an idea Mike Cooper had but it never came to fruition.

Where did you see these pics (link?)

Cheers

Michael

There is a Yahoo group that someone on here started and it was on there in one of the folders. I think it was an American based group so maybe an aftermarket copy from over the pond.

Cheers. Nice car by the way MichaelK!!!! You have good taste! Apart from the lack of white roof of course ;)

These JCW logo'd door sill plates have appeared on a Mini2 post recently (with pictures). They are offical and have a BMW part number although Minty posted that the part number was not yet on the system. I have the part number at home and will post it tonight unless someone else beats me to it.

:)

Cheers Ratty! Thats the news I wanted to hear!

See here............;)

Xmas present I think :cool: :D

An 'October 10th' present I think!!

Not sure if they are on the GB system yet. Will call them in a sec.

Cheers people!

sweeeeeeeeeet have got to get a pair of those.

Cheers Ratty! Thats the news I wanted to hear!

Jones, probably a repeat now but here is the part number information for the JCW sills:

The part no. is '51 71 0 305 557'. You of course need to order 2 of these per car.

Cheers.

I took the part number from the aforementioned post and, while at my Mini dealer in Dallas, had them look up the part. It was in their system, and the price was about $40 US each. I ordered two of them and will call them tomorrow to see if they have arrived. The part number was valid, but the dealer had no way to tell if the door sills were JCW sills, since there was no description, outside of door sill plates. I will keep you informed.

Shouldn't you also have to give them your JCW Kit number? Are MINI going to hand these out to anyone who asks/pays for them? Doesn't bother me, yet. BMW do this with M3 badges to attempt to stop people 'doing up' their cars.

those are titslarue baby

they can "do up" their cars all they want until they get dusted at a stop light. But those sill plates are sweet. gotta have 'em.

My JCW's door sills will be installed on Wed . I got the pair for $70 :cool:

In fact I fitted them yesterday; they look very "Works" ;)
