Stunning Cooper S R56 Body Kit

Has anyone seen or heard of this company? Or had one fitted?
2007+ MIni Cooper S R56 Aero Body Kit FRONT+REAR BUMPER +SIDE SKIRTS w/ LED DRL | eBay

I came across this kit for the R56 on Ebay and think it looks alot better than the works body kit, especially the two black boxes on the rear bumper. I personally much prefer this big diffuser!

Let me know your thoughts!

The front looks awful, like someone has taken the JCW bumper, stuck some cheap chrome bits on, added some naff LED lights, and thought "job done!"

Similarly, the skirts look like someone has done a bad Photoshop job trying to "improve" the JCW ones?

That said, I agree that the back looks good, and would look brilliant with the JCW exhaust. As above though, far too steep at £2k!

Agreed!

The front does look tacky and I persoanlly think the JCW kit with this rear bumper would look the part.

Mini should have done the rear like this to begin with instead of the two black squares on the back.

Yeah, I've always thought the rear of the JCW would benefit from looking a bit more like any of these...
