Aero kit planning questions

Does anyone know how much a rear aero bumper for a MCS without PDC runs for?

I want to jump on the classic mini aero kit promotion but they are mostly for the standard MINI, not the MCS.

Also, i see some rear AERO bumpers with rear grills while some are solid. Are they actual grill cut outs into the bumper or are they a plastic grill overlay (non functional) just for looks?

The rear bumper is solid. The "openings" you are looking at are vinyl stickers.

I backed my sweet MCS into a cement footer today...arrghhh. I will need a new rear bumper and the rear quarter panel replaced. Check out the nasty photo here.

In the DC area, where do you recommend i take this to get it worked on? I am thinking of using this mishap as an excuse to buy a rear aero bumper. Do you think the car will look funny with just a rear aero bumper and not a front one to go with it?

Which blue? Indy? Space Blue? Hyper Blue? My car is space blue.
What type of condition is it in? Have any pics?
