Factory Aero Kit????

Hi All -

I recently picked up a 2010 MCS Black/Black which was fairly loaded. I just cleared the break-in and so far I LOVE this car. I came from driving mostly BMW's (7, 5, X5 and M3s) and I have never enjoyed anything as much as this MCS.

That said, when I took delivery of the car I saw another MCS on the lot with the factory Aero kit. I know many here prefer the JCW kit -- but I really liked the look of the factory. I asked the dealer if the Factory kit could be added to the car and was told that it has to come from the factory installed.

Does anyone know if it is possible to get the Factory installed after the fact?

Thanks in advance.

Bobby

It's BS. Replacement parts have to be available... What if you had one and got into a wreck?

You can buy all the parts separately on PenskeParts.com but it would cost a fortune.

Sure. You can buy mine. I took off the factory aero kit and had the JCW installed. My car is laser blue.

The front bumper is wrapped in Xpel, the side skirts, rear bumper, wheel arches, grills and grill surrounds are in excellent condition. They have about 10,000 miles on them.

All the parts have been sitting in my attic since February of this year.

Make me an offer. I live in the NYC area.

you could also just have your stuff painted to match... that usually looks great as well!
