hi
hopefully i pickup my mini on Saturday..its an 06 cooper s in with with black roof`bonnet stripes.

id like to change the grill adn bumper grills to mesh and have seen various options at minisport -

you can get
1 a grill kit that sits over the existing grill - has anyone seen how this looks?
2 bumper inserts
3 raw mesh

so if i go for 1 or 3 will the bum per inserts match?

if i go for 3 - how do i attach it?

are there any other options around?

then of course next is the lights questions - i have the factory fitted spots but would like 4 - but we'll leave that one for now as there seems to be loads on lights

thanks

is the JCW grill available for the First gen cooper s (face lift)... cant find it on JCW site or mini site. Only shows grill as part of body kit for the new model

Still swaying towards the mesh look

Any more thoughts?

Yes the Aero was available for the Mini 1st Gen (Facelift).

Dealer sells this too, but to save you some time

eBay.co.uk: BMW Mini Cooper S One Aero Kit Grills for Bonnet&Bumper (item 160085487961 end time 19-Feb-07 09:56:14 GMT)

Even instructions on that ad for you.. (btw i am not the seller)

Hope it helps
