Hi guys I was just wondering, how easy is it to fit a new front Aerokit fender/bumper to the R56 minis? I mean I did the fenders and skirts on my previous minis which were fine so I am assuming that these will be just as easy for me to do by myself again? Rather than getting a dealer to do it for a fortune.

Any advice etc would be gratefully appreciated

 

It was a piece of cake, you don't even need to jack it up. The bumper is held on by a few screws and clips. The clips underneath must be broken to be removed (AFAIK), but those are the only ones. The replacement bumper should come with replacement clips. Its really not a difficult install, its pretty easy to figure out how its held on. There's a couple of clips hidden behind the fenders though, so be careful not to stretch them too far to get to them.

 

Thanks for the info, all I need to do now is wait for my car to get here and just get my fender/bumper ready and waiting for it along with the aero grille...
