do you guys think the aero kit is worth the money for its distinct look?

 

yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no...

Just saving some folks from posting

Do what you want, it's your MINI, enjoy it how YOU want it

As I've said before, I like to look at the cost per day. So if something like the aero kit costs $2000 installed, and you keep the car for 2000 days, would it be worth $1 a day to you? If so, it is worth it, if not, its not. Personally, I've seen the JCW kit on a friend's 07 MCS and I liked it, so I'm getting it on mine.

 

I know they're not as unique or "exclusive" as some of the aftermarket bodykits, but I've always thought the MINI aero kits look pretty classy.

At some point, I'm definitely going with the aero grilles on my car, even if I don't do the entire aero kit.

 

i love the aero kit on the mini, the majority of the aftermarket body kits dont really look that good on a mini becuase they're overdone

this kit has a simple but flashy look on it!

 

Couldn't justify the cost of a full aero kit and don't like the lower clearance of the nose but do very much prefer the aero grill, so compromised w/ that. Makes a huge visual difference.

 

I love love love love love the look of the JCW aero kit on mine (I'm assuming you're not referring to the Hyper Sport).

 

I really like the look of the JCW aero kit as well; highly considering it for my MCS. Hyper Sport not so much, but with the (very much necessary) painted wheel arches it can look decent; just not my style.

 

It's worth every dime.

 

I love the look as well,but as said above painting out the wheel arches really needs to be done,the car looks so much better..yes it is more expensive but you have to look at the final product and decide what you personally like...When I ordered mine there was no discussion...good luck with it and enjoy...

 

It looks fine, and I initially wanted to get one... BUT! (There's always a but!)

If you plan to autocross, it will remove you from the Stock Classes. The aero kit is installed at the dealer or VDC, not at the factory. SCCA still maintains a difference, the silly buggers.
