group buy, imo

there are still a lot of r53 owners who are either waiting to buy an r60/r61 or upgrade the heck out of their r53!

I'd hit it! I like the removal of the cheap plastic fender trim.

Well thats definitely the spirit of MINI ownership! They definitely customized theirs exactly how they wanted so who am I to judge! My MINI is different and I like it that way but theirs is certainly unique. Like the front bumper being different, not certain why they decided to bulge the sides, that just seems off to me but to each their own!

I am so glad to hear that many of you don't like the kit. I have no issues with your feelings about the kit. For me it less chance that someone else will have a car that looks like mine. (That is, if I can get past the price of the kit/install)

Darn, I was hoping this thread would be about MINI's response to the Nissan Juke R.

Juke R = Juke + GTR

I'm not a fan of the juke look either, it was the super car performance in a MINI that I was getting at. I will say in this instance the Juke-R is more attractive than this MINI body kit.

To be honest, this kit takes away all of the stylish lines that give the Cooper it's character. This kit makes it look like just another hamster mobile.

yes but it is the first body kit since the official aero that is somewhat tolerable. it seems to have 50/50 love and hate... just like the coupe had when it was shown off to the world

Not my cup of tea, but I can appreciate the clean body work!

I'm sure as people see it more (though harder with the aero kit) they'll like it more and more. I'm liking the coupe the more I see pictures of it let alone in person.

Looks great. I would have gone with black tail lights, though.

It'll look like Vader's Mini when I get through with it.

Somewhere, a Mitsubishi wants its nose back. I'm not feeling it. Sorry. :(
