Wow...sounds pretty steep for a kit, but I guess that does include painting and installing it. So does the kit get shipped with the car unpainted? Then once they arrive then paint and install and that is why it takes longer to get the car? I don't understand why they wouldn't just install the kit at the factory?

 

congrats on the no sunroof/wind noise! lol

 

Yes indeed, that's the total price after painting and installation. They overcharge us because they simply can. They are greedy just like anyone else in the business. You could actually get the Navigation System plus Park Distance Control for the price of the JCW aero kit. None of the JCW accesories are cheap. I am not sure why they don't install the kit at the factory.

 

Thanks, I figured that since I live 2.5 hours away from the nearest dealership, I should try to minimize potential problems (such as water leaking and rattling sunroofs). Plus I saved some money in the meantime too!

 

If they did install this at the factory I would have ordered it

 

It's finally here!!! I just picked up my car last Friday. I absolutely love the car and the JCW aero kit. I am so glad I ordered this kit. Here are some pics:







EDIT: OK, I think the pics should be OK now.

 

Hmm...I don't see any pics.

EDIT: See 'em now. Congrats!!! Enjoy your new vehicle.

 

I'd like to see them, too. I have laser blue MINI on the way!

 

laser blue rocks!! i think the JCW kit looks real nice as well but it was just too much moolah for me.

 

Is there a big diff. between the JCW aero kit and the regular aero kit?

 

Yes, there is. Two completely different body kits.

 

congrats on the car. Comfort access is great. Too bad it did not fit your budget.

 

Looks awesome!!!!!!!!!

 

Congrats on your new baby! GREAT color choice by the way

 

Love the no sunroof!!! That is what I speced....

 

Congratulations uzun!

 

Thanks everyone!

 

You did good. What a great looking car! You picked all the right options for your mini. It is not a bloated, option heavy, wanna be sports car, it is a Real Sports Car.
Way to go
