Hi Guys and Gals:

I recently sold my 2005 Mini Cooper S Convertible. I purchased a set of the John Cooper Works rocker panels/side aero skirts, but never installed them. These may fit other models, but you will need to verify.

I'm not quite sure what to ask. These are genuine Mini JCW parts. They will need to be pained to match your car. They are primed for painting as delivered. Brand new in the box.

Make me a reasonable offer and they could be yours. They are big, so shipping will be a bit pricey, but if you live in the Allentown PA area, I'm happy to have them picked up locally.

Thanks,
Lee

 

It has been a while, but when I installed mine the set of clips included a few different ones depending on ht or vert application.

 

I appreciate the info. I don't want to misrepresent it in any way. I purchased them specifically for the convertible, so I'm confident they will work on the convertible. If someone knows it will work on the Coupe or another model, that's fine, I just don't want to personally guarantee it. ;-)

 

Do you have photos of the item? I'm a tad confused as to what exactly you're selling.

Is it this item - http://www.totalmini.com/forum/17-20...placement.html

 

Yes, that is what I'm selling. Unpainted. They are the JCW Aeroskirts with the side scoop, just like the pics.

I'll get them out of the box and take some pics tomorrow. Not sure how I got this under the "Brakes" category or how to change it.

 

PRICE DROP. Don't be afraid to make an offer.

 

Sent you a PM. Do you know or does anyone know if they will work on a 2004 Hardtop?

 

I made an offer, did you get my PM?

 

Seeing as how, new, they cost $400, I'd be willing to offer $200.

 

Where can you get them for $400 new? I thought they were more than that.

Thanks and have a great day!

 

You're correct about them being more at Outmotoring, and the like ($597.95), however, there's a company that imports a similar looking set (besides the company on eBay that sells the entire JCW look alike kit for $295).

 

Does the company that imports them get them from BMW or is it after market? This is good information and I appreciate your knowledge on this.

Can you PM me the link for the import company?

Thanks

 

I'll look for it, and get it to you, but if you look on the Atlanta, and Pittsburgh, Craigslist, you'll see that there are guys selling the entire JCW Clubman body kits for $750. A friend told me about the company they were importing them from. In fact, the guy in Atlanta had 5-sets for sale at one time....Lol

The other company (eBay) has a beautiful kit, but it's fiberglass. Type in JCW S-line kit, and a blue Mini, with chrome wheels, will pop up ($280, plus $90 shipping).

 

Hey guys, I'm not trying to take advantage of anyone. They costs a bit to ship, and these are the OEM product. Make an offer you think is fare and we will chat. Nothing adversarial. I'm reasonable. You want the best price you can get them for, and I'm just trying to recoup some of my outlay and minimize my loss.

I'm a car nut, I've been through this with my VWs and BMWs. The OEM stuff is always a little ridiculous priced, but it's also a notch above some of the fiberglass and cheap plastic stuff you can find on Ebay. With a good paint job, you can make the cheaper parts work. I'm personally kind of a stickler for the OEM stuff, but everyone is different. I'm sure we can come to a reasonable agreement.

 

I worry about aftermarket parts fitting properly but thanks for the info.

 

I agree; there is a warm feeling inside that comes with knowing everything is authentic. I suspect, however, with 3D printing now on the scene, we may be in for rocky roads ahead. In your's are still available next week, I'll take them off your hands (just found the JCW front, and rear, bumpers - $100, and $120).

 

Yeah, I suspect things will get real interesting down the pike with the 3D printing technology. That said, there is a certain amount of engineering work that goes into making this stuff right, especially with regards to attachment mechanisms and fit and finish. I suspect there is a bit more to it than just cranking out a reproduction part, but everything is progressing.

 

These are sold. Thank you folks!
