That.Is.Class. I love the older R53 jcdub kit and this gives the 56 that look. Love it!

If I can find this and have it be affordable, I would get it.

It looks as though they smoothed out the rear of the JCW kit and made the front a little more aggresive. I wonder what the sides look like.

It's modeled almost exactly like the new M aero kit for the 1 series. I don't know anything about the sides.

Cheap and Garbino are never in the same sentence.

Anything that sounds remotely italian is never cheap

If its under 2k shipped I'll get it, but I doubt it. Any ideas where it is Vic?

Nope, Rally is the one that posted the pics on m|u, so maybe PM him about it. I asked when he posted them and he didn't have any more info at the time either.

They haven't released it for public consumption yet....that's the owner's car. It is made by garbino though (a japanese company, not italian as it sounds)

The pricing is nowhere near 2000 shipped. It's like each bumper is 800 a piece and sideskirts in that same range. Who knows how much shipping a full kit to the US would cost.

The wing is my favorite part. I like the grills too; a cross between OEM and M7

Agreed about the wing. I hate spoilers...but this one on the kit looks great. Honestly, some one in the States need to get this kit rolling...

Whats Duell?

I'll bring it to the states. Let me just get a custom MINI cooper shop up and running. We will do anything that a MINI cooper owner can think of to do. If you want the craziest body kit from japan, we will get it. If you want to paint the underside of your car we will do it. Want to paint all your chrome in zebra strips on your IR cabrio you just got, we will do it. And 50% off for all NAM members.

So does anybody have some money i can borrow to get this shop started?

It's a Japanese company that sells aftermarket kits. The grill they have on that MINI is a Duell grill. It's good because it looks sweet, it's bad because it would have to be shipped from Japan
