I have done a search on this but cant find anything in australia so here i go.
I will receive my MCS in three weeks and have optioned for the JCW tune kit, Aero kit carbon rear wing,boot latch and bonnet intake and want to know if i should receive all the original items back ie; bumpers,side skirts, supercharger, exhaust etc?
These items could be useful later or even sold so i do want them

cheers

Not sure about the exterior bits, but for the drivetrain you *might* get your zorst back, but that's about it. Unless you can strike a deal with your stealer.

enzothemaddog · Feb 28th, 2006, 08:17 AM

You definately will NOT get back the head or SC or other bits from the engine. As to the body parts, it depends on whether they're fitted in Oz or UK.

MAD Always · Feb 28th, 2006, 08:20 AM

What is the colour of the car you are purchasing?

Todd! · Feb 28th, 2006, 08:21 AM

In Australia they steal them and someone sells them on ebay to fund the end of year xmas party...

WORKSRACER · Feb 28th, 2006, 08:29 AM

All the parts are going to be fitted here because i am in the trade i struck a deal with them to supply ALL the items at trade prices.
I cant see why they should keep them there is no where stated that the aero kit for example are on exchange basis they didnt discount the replacement price of the bumpers in the kit price.
How much is the stock items in the Tune kit worth? im sure the total sum of original parts would be very close to the $9K of the retail of the kit.
I will discuss this with them but i was wondering if anyone else has gone this road before.

cheers

This is how I got my hands on a JCW Supercharger last year.

Babes · Feb 28th, 2006, 09:05 AM

I know of one dude that wanted to keep his bits when he put the JCW kit on, charged him another 3K i think it was.

Gr1zzLy · Feb 28th, 2006, 09:24 AM

go to klosters they give u all ur bits back no cost. u actually have to tell them if u don't want your old parts.

MickyD · Feb 28th, 2006, 09:54 AM

Tit · Feb 28th, 2006, 10:03 AM

Baker · Feb 28th, 2006, 10:37 AM

You did factor in the fact that the factory fitting has the brake upgrade too?

Todd! · Feb 28th, 2006, 10:39 AM

What did you pay for the stuff trade price?

-blacky- · Feb 28th, 2006, 10:41 AM

I think the trade price for the aero kit is about $1600

AndrewH · Feb 28th, 2006, 11:34 AM

I was under the impression that the reason you have to hand back the engine parts was because JCW rebuild them to JCW spec and use them for their next customer.

I'm getting the JCW brake upgrade kit and have been told that I'll be getting the old (still unused) parts back

minigolf · Feb 28th, 2006, 11:57 AM

We both will.

MiniFr34k · Feb 28th, 2006, 11:10 PM
