JCW Body Kit Question.

Hi everyone,
I need some help. I know guy who is selling a JCW body kit that was purchased for their 07 Justa' Cooper. I currently own a 09 JCW with the regular body kit. I was curious to if his body kit would fit mine? I found the installation instructions from mini, and it seemed that there were only minor differences between the cooper and cooper s (shaving a piece off of the front bumper, the rear diffuser with exhaust to the right or middle depending on your model). Also I have found other posts on various forums about this but they were really vague. I know the grill is different between an MCS and cooper, but I do have the JCW Hex grill already installed. Can somebody clarify this for me?? I have tried to contact my local mini parts expert, but I have had no luck in getting a hold of him. I know that I will have to get a different diffuser for the bumper due to the JCW exhaust which is no problem, but I want to make sure everything else will line up and install perfectly before I drop the money on paint and etc.

here is the link for the instructions that have so far led me to believe that it will work just fine on my '09 JCW.

Yes it will fit though you will need a new rear valence since the Cooper has a different one from the Cooper S.
This is a crappy picture but, hopefully helps you in understanding what I am talking about.

Thank you so much for your help!! I was confident but just wanted to make the confidence concrete before I spend that amount of money.
