The washer nozzle cover is not available in black.

The kit is not coming to the US due to lighting regs. The headlight trim, and side markers are the only pieces available.

 

Yea I searched google and read something about DOT approval issues.
I just went ahead and Plasti Dipped all the chrome...came out great and it only cost me $5 for a can

 

ordered tail light surround from ECS. Only 1 more month :P

 

Thanks for the update

My order status update claimed Oct 5th at the end of last week but now claims Nov 20th for mine to be due in to ECS's warehouse.

 

mine showed like Oct 15th/16th or something like that.

 

Arrival dates change daily. I deal with it at my work.

 

 

@ philiptoys, what year is your MCS?

Where did you order the Black Line kit? The only place I've found the tail lights for sale is at http://minigenuineparts.co.uk, any one else know who sells them?

I live in Germany and am wondering if my local Mini dealer could order them. Part number?

 

Anyone paint or have the the washer covers painted? What do you recommend?

 

Hi I have them paint ,Black 668 , but i remove the chrome before .I dip the cover for couple of hours in bleach and wet sand them after .

 

Hi ,check in Real oem online for the part number ,but don't be fool with the diagram ,the side scuttles are not includes ,only the smoked light .My JCW is 2011 .
Regards

 

thanks!

 

:( now they show Nov 14th, looks like another month

 

Damn.. Half tempted to have them color coded now instead, along with the washer covers and headlight rings.

 

That would look good.

 

Anyone know where to get the side scuttle smoked lights?. I have carbon side scuttles but hate the white lens.

 

This works really well http://www.vhtpaint.com/products/niteshades/

 

Here is the part number 63 13 2 225 809 for the smoked lens.

 

I just emailed ECS about the tail trim rings I have on backorder. I was told that they will be shipping out to me either the 12th or 15th of this month.

 

I vinyl wrapped mine. I did have them PlastiCoated, but it was flat and the trim rings glossier.

 

There is a good number of headlight rings in the country at the moment.

 

ill have to do the same

 

I just received an email from ecs that my parts shipped today.

 

I'm a little confused on if the Black Line kit will fit my R56 or not. I talked to my local Mini parts guy the other day about ordering it and he siad it only fits LCI models which he said started in Sep 2011. According to this site http://www.minigenuineparts.co.uk/mi...2_221_487.html they will fit Aug 2010 on word. My R56 was built in July 2010.

So whats the difference from July 2010 to Aug 2010.? I thought 2011 models where the start of the LCI.
