Anyone have before and after pics of the Aero kit ?

I've just bought a 2006 MCS and seriously thinking about the Aero kit but I haven't seen anyone posting pics of the before and after.

Can anyone help a newbie MCS owner please

Hmm...let me try to help out here. Not the same angle, but...

Before (actually, in this one, I have the aero front bumper):



Another one, no aero side skirts or rear bumper yet. This was before I changed the wheels:






After, with FULL Aero kit, and painted arches:

Thanks mate, thats really appreciated but I'm still not 100% clear on whats different.....TBH the first picture looks brilliant. I really like the painted wheel arches, they set it off perfectly.

Any other pictures I can see ?

The painted arches are separate, and you will need to paint those if you want at a separate cost. The Aero kit consists of the front, rear, and both side skirts.

The Aero kit with painted arches is the way to go!

Or save some $$$, get the front aero and paint the arches with non aero sides and tail.
