The Aero Kit is on! (Update: Back Box also now fitted!)

[R99]

Hi guys,

Well today the guys down at Woodmans (thanks Chris and Dave) sorted out my Aero Kit. It looks fantastic, and I'm dead chuffed with it.

I'm sure everyone gets sick of threads like these, but its completley tranformed the look of the car, Im so happy with it all . The pictures really dont do it justice.

Before anyone says it, I know the exhaust looks daft! Woodmans were supposed to fit me a Cooper chrome tail finisher, so that the zaust filled the slash properly, but unfortuantley it would not fit.

So as a result I'm looking for a soloution. One of which being a new back box. Milltek sell a full exaust with a straight tail pipe, which looks rather So I'm just waiting to see if they sell the back box on its own. Otherwise its going to be £300+ for a full system.

The exhuast situation has now been sorted, see further down for pics

Hope everyone likes it!

Regards,

James.

Very Nice Indeed, Anthracite wheels to finish it off would look really cool!

Oh forgot to say, Aero Spoiler is going on as soon as it comes off back order....

Looks brilliant James, you really have got a stunning MINI. Good luck with the exhaust and happy driving.

Glad to see you're liking the kit James, you'll end up getting a Milltek I'm sure

Thanks for all the kind words guys.

Well a little update on the situation of the exaust... Milltek no longer make the ONE D exhaust.

But I am looking into having a custom back box made by PowerFlow, locally for around £300.

In the mean time though, Im so pleased with how the car looks. My mates cant beliweve how much different it appears to be..

Regards,

James.

Thanks again people. I've had lots of comments about it at work today, which was nice.

I'm taking it to a local place tommorow to get a quote for a custom back box. So hopefully the exhaust issue will be rectified very soon.

Regards,

James.

Good News!

The exhaust issue will be sorted on Tuesday morning!

I'm having a custom back box made and the following tail pipe fitted...



Its been done by PowerFlow exhuasts for £170 including fitting, so all in all not bad. The tail finisher was the best out of the three which would fit the car, and allthough you cant really see it in the pic, its kind of slash cut. However I will have another look at whats avliable when it goes in on Tuesday.

The web page below shows the full range of tail finishers, so if anyone thinks something else would look better, then post which one

Ok time to be annoying with more photos. The last lot were just quick jobbies to show the change.

I just nipped out and took these, pretty happy with them.
