Does the STOCK COOPER S rear bumper have the lower bracket needed for the AERO BUMPER

Im going to fit my new Rear Aero rear bumper on monday and have been told you need a lower bumper bracket which isnt included in the kit,before i buy one i wonderd if anyone knows if the rear cooper s bumper has one fitted that i just need to remove .The trouble is if i remove the current cooper s one and find i need a braket i cant then drive the half hour journey to my dealer ship to get one .For those who dont have it fitted the part number is 51 120 152 925.

yesyou need a DIFFERENT bracket

it attatches inside the rear fog lamp hole, and its a whopping 5 bucks or so from MINI. fyi you can actually put your bumper on and drive the car without it,the center just isnt quite as stable as it should be.
