No problem, StevenZoz.

I plan to purchase this (once I have plenty of rock chips on the front of my car), but not the JCW rear bumper, for the following reasons:

1) The current MCS rear bumper has an aggressive-enough appearance.
2) The JCW rear bumper has many different parts and seems too costly and time-consuming to paint and install.

Has anyone been able to find the center armrest in all this? You can basically build the entire car with these parts diagrams but I can't for the life of me find that darn armrest!

This is very interesting since the JCW Exterior package option won't be available to order from the factory until November of this year on a MY15.

Anyone install this yet? I'm trying to decide between this one and the Duell bumper.

Is this a direct fit on the f56s? Of coarse needing pain which I think will be more money than the bumper itself

I believe it is a direct replacement with the additional pieces for the fog lights. I had a little kiss from a deer this morning and I don't care for the look of the stock bumper anyway so it's time for something new :D

These have not been released from Mini yet. They show a Germany release date of 9/1/14.

SO I guess ordering this would just be a pre order?

If you're not fond of the stock bumper, you might not like the JCW any better.

I'm sad that they did away with the amazing side skirt design from the R56.

Somehow, and I don't understand it, the front bumper is growing on me.

I am happy with what the S came with.
Only thing i'd like is some side skirt to make it look better on the sides....

It looks better than the S front end. Honestly though I feel like the non S front end probably looks the best. Looks the most simple to me.

Anyone think they will bring Electric Blue back to the normal Hardtop?
