New R53

Hey guys i bought an R53 recently from the original owner with 70k miles and it is in excellent condition. Always garaged and was used as a weekend car. I want to start modding it, but in a tasteful way. Does anyone know where i can get the JCW aero side skirts and two piece grilles? Ive looked on ebay and other websites and cant find them. I will be adding bc coilovers and putting on some 16 inch rpf1's with some meaty tires. Let me know what you guys think.

Mod away. Nice platform for it... and finding a garaged weekend Mini is a big plus. Nice! Put some more pictures up when you can. Already looks great.

You might be able to try and find a used set in the marketplace, but then you'd also have to possibly repaint if they aren't color matched. It's an option. If you need anything else just give me a shout.

Marketplace - https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...rketplace-386/

Welcome ,

Sometimes they pop up in the marketplace , but they will be striped and need re primed and painted. Lucky to find in the same color.

I have the aero kits next on my list for the 2005 MCC i have.

Enkei or OEM MINI ?
