JCW Pro Carbon Fiber Exhaust Tips and other mods
 

Well today I was able to get my exhaust tips, the black grill surround and my craven speed license plate mount all put on. Still have a few mods to do over the next few months but she's getting there

Looks great! The CF exhaust tips with the JCW Pro bumper trim looks excellent.

How did you go about swapping the grille surround; did you just yank off the chrome one?

LOVE the CF tips, which ones are they?

I had the dealership do the grill and exhaust, they only charged me for a hours labor. I know after it was put on I got to talk to the mechanic who installed both pieces and he just yanked the old one off, it broke two of the inserts for the clips but I don't care. I just chunked it when I got home.

Those are the JCW Pro ones from the Mini EU catalog. I got an good deal on them also since someone messed up in quoting me the price at the dealership and they saw that when I went to pay but they honered what they had told me so I'm definitely happy.

Here's a close up for you.

I also had to get the short sporty antenna from Mini, the stock one just looked bla.

I guess I may be in the minority, but I quite like the stock antenna!! The rear wing was obviously designed around it with the hatch up! The F56 antenna is much shorter & beefier than the older MINI stock antennas....mine is staying on there!

I just didn't like the look, it reminded me when I was a young kid and we did whatever we had to do to get a signal on a tv. It's definitely a preference thing for sure, I just like the cleaner look.

Sweet upgrades!!
carbonmini.com has a nice CF shorty antenna.
Next lower that badboy!

I'm not sure if I'm going to lower it since I have the adaptive damping control. I drive in allot of traffic to and from work and I like being able to have a softer ride for long trips to visit my family.

I'm though trying to figure out which rims to get.

The best rims for our cars are also made in the UK (Team Dynamics) . They are Mini specific for the JCW large calipers.
I have them in 18x8 waiting for nxt spring

Well I finished blacking it out, I learned that I definitely am not good with vinyl wrap, will probably take it off and have a pro do it haha

I understand perfectly...after having my car cover custom made to fit the stock antenna, mine is staying on there for awhile at least. LOL! Otherwise, I'll have a droopy appendage on the car cover where the antenna was.

Your car looks fabulous with all the mods!

carbonmini.coms CF shorty on my Johnny CW

That looks nice man, will have to put it on my list for next year.

I got it for free from Erin @ carbonmini when i placed my F56 CF trim order.
U should have gotten one too.
She also gives u free CF valve stem caps.

Think you just sweet talked her more then I did haha

Maybe-
most likely I spent a ton of cash on her CF trim parts.

And we all are gonna have to wait until next spring to see them mounted huh? Here's hoping time flies...LOL! I just know those wheels are gonna look awesome on a JCW!

Black out job looks great BTW!

yup, hurry spring. I want sticky wide tires.

Those tips look so good with the JCW Pro diffuser

They really do like nice on there, I would definitely recommend them to others.

Nice work, you can't see any issues with the vinyl from here.

Did you just add these to the factory JCW exhaust?
