Sorry if this has been mulled over...nothing came up when I 'Searched.' Can someone educate me on the aero kit? I haven't seen it as an option when building MCS.

The Aero Kit is a dealer installed option, from what I can remember, it comes with a new front bumper, side skirts, and rear apron, plus the black mesh grills (see "Accessories pics on miniusa.com). If you're looking for the look but not the cost, I suggest just ordering the black mesh hood and top bumper grills and installing those yourself (about $100 vs. $1200) similar look, though the side skirts are pretty sharp, so they may come down the road. You can get parts for less than retail from Classic Auto Campus, email them at bmwparts@classicautocampus.com. In fact, I placed my order yesterday, got the rally lights, rubber floor mats, and mesh grills for less than what the dealer charges for rally lights alone! Good luck!

If you decide to install the aero grills yourself, go down a couple of threads to see:
"How to: Aero grills on stock bumpers and driving lights self install" posted by RS3W11. :smile: BTW, I am Sam J in this instructions.

Sfiveten: Sorry I did not get instructions to you with pics. I did, however, help RS3W11, by providing guidance that I used to install the grille pkg on my MCS. I think that his post explains the "how too" fairly well.
