Hi all,
Anyone of you guys paste a black sticker on the small area portion that surrounds the fog light of the front bumper just like the Mini shows in www.johncooper.co.uk? It looks better in black which suit the aero grill perfectly! Do you guys know where I can buy it? Or do I need to paint it black?

The full aero kit looks the biz - especially when it's fully colour coded. The black grille on the front and the lower air dam on the bumbers gives the car a much meaner look. I wasn't sure whether I liked it at first, but when you see it up close you can see that it really enhance the look of the car.

I don't know where everyone is getting those 3K+ high prices from. You can get it prepainted from Classic mini for 1360 and Mini of Sterling do it for 1300 - List price is 1700 fitting is about 400 so tops for a painted aero kit should be in the $2200USD range or as low as 1300 + shipping if you fit it yourself. Of course if you want it painted or completly color-coded then you'll pay a lot more.

The one thing I do not like about the kit (I love the looks but then again, I hardly see it as I am driving it) is the fact that the side skirts do seem to take a beating particularly the leading edge behind the front wheels, and as they are painted, they chip. They should have made that out of molded black plastic.
I absolutely love the black grilles and the fog lights to go.....small hassle...the car cover I bought does not accomodate them.......also if you want a "bra".....I sure do not know where you'd get one as the one for the stock one will not fit......AND another thing....you cannot get proper (OEM) mud flaps for it......
Gee....I dislike it so much now, I think I'll go home and tear it out..... :D
