Greetings to all. Proud new owner of an '06 MCS convertible. It's amazing that as soon as you take it out of the box you want to start playing! I barely got it into the garage when I started stripping it down for the aero kit install. The wheel trim also went to the painter. I'll send a picture of the pepper white beauty as soon as it's back together. On another note, . I'm looking for instructions and installation hints for the oem tach mounted aux. gauges . Any help would be greatly appre.ciated. Thanks John

 

I can't help you with any of the installation stuff...but I can say - Hiya and Welcome Aboard.....glad you found NAM - I'm sure someone will pipe in with the help you need...

welcome on-board, check Mini2 diy section for the aux. gauge installation, few tips at www.Mini2.com

 

Welcome aboard and have fun w/ those mods!!!

 

Congrats!

So how much is the painter charging for the trim to be painted if you dont mind me asking? I am looking to get this done when my baby arrives...

 

I too am getting my 06 mcsc jcw in 2 or 3 weeks. what is an aero kit? I just might need one also.

 

Regarding the aero kit, it is viewable at miniusa.com as you build your Mini. I would, after buying the kit, only buy the front bumper cover and related black grills for it and the hood. It has a "mini" BMW sort of look.

I have'nt received the bill for the painting of the aero and trim parts. The body shop has received "a lot" of my wife's damage repairs. They even send her cards on her birthday! They'll charge me paint and hours. The parts should be ready next week. I'll let you know the numbers then. John
