Does anyone have any pics/stories/opinions on the look of the aero kit? I think I would want to get this kit at the time of purchase rather than later, but for the cost/labor it better look tit.

So give 'em up ... does the aero kit make your mini look nice? worth the $$$? or would my coin be better spent on some fly wheels?

bonus points for the aero kit on a PW cooper.

Welcome to MINI2 earlax

You can check out my gallery, I got the Aero kit.

bkwalker · Oct 8th, 2003, 06:29 AM

best thing for you to do is to run a search

just type in aero kit or body kit etc (search in the 'exterior' section)
and a whole bunch of threads will come up and tell you all u need to know

my opinion is get it factory fitted though! or when its delivered..
aero kit looks awesome!

The Aero kit is the dogs. There is only one other body kit for the MINI I like more (well more like equally) with its "Cooper S" style exhaust. But it doesn't have "offical MINI merchandise" going for it:

glad to see my research was of use

lol.

i have the aero kit being fitted this coming monday along with four spot lamps on a silk green. i'll have pics up as soon as if you like. I think its lovely. But there are other kits that are almost as good. I think if you really want a kit, look around first before deciding, took me a while to decide to go for the aero kit over the other choices. Wheels can come later

Minty · Oct 9th, 2003, 08:56 PM

we just fitted a white aero kit to a White/Black Cooper, looked really good!!

red03miniS · Oct 9th, 2003, 08:57 PM

pics minty?

Minty · Oct 9th, 2003, 09:08 PM

will try and get some tomorrow, unless the owner picked his car up tonight.

Damo · Oct 9th, 2003, 11:08 PM

Just downloaded the fitting guide from MINI2 for the aero kit (as planning to fit it myself) For the front bumper it goes on about repositioning the fog lights

and cutting bits off the indicators. I thought it was just a bolt on/off affair.

Looks like its not going to be as easy as I thought.

No, I'm keeping the S spoiler on Minty

Minty · Oct 10th, 2003, 08:40 AM

I'll need some bits for the new bumpers, but my dealer doesn't seem to know

if he can get just "bits" of the stripes?

Do you know any better Minty?

Minty · Oct 10th, 2003, 11:03 AM

no, you can only get the full set of stripes. best bet is to get a local grafix company to make the bits you require.
