I guess I'll go first... I'm sure you guys have seen it, but here it is again...









I need to update all of these ('cept for the last one) with the new angel eyes and custom lower mesh-grille...

And I know some of youse fine folks will ask me about the front bumper - it is the stock unit, I decided against the Aero front bumper because (and you may laugh if you want) it does not have a "housing" for the European plate. I am working on a lower lip to compliment it, though.

Take care,
Leo.

Here is mine...but like the previous two, I don't have the full kit either. I am missing the Aero bumper. I am going to get it when I can afford to buy it.


Here is my latest picture:

Thanks. There are a bunch more non-aero kit photos on my site (click my signature image).

Oh, here's one more I took on Sunday at an autocross.

Mmmmmm nice MINIs!

I'm really digging the painted arches look. I heard it's pretty pricey though, right?

I only have the side skirts for now, and hope to get the front and rear some time soon. BTW, anyone knows whether you can put the non-aero front mid grill (the top one one the bumper) on the aero bumper? I personally like the look of the full non-aero front grill more than the aero one, but like the look of the aero bumper though.
