Calling all Aero Kit Front Bumper buyers out there!!!

My MCS has a big gap at the wheel arches between the bonnet and the bumper :evil: :evil: :evil:

I noticed that the promotional pictures of the Aerokit has the big gap too. I can fit my finger between there The bonnet is closed tight. I triple checked.

Do you have this gap too? :???: :???: :???:

Also the promotional materials state that the full Aero Kit includes a license plate holder. I don't think I got it :???: :???: :???:

I don't think the Aero Kit license plate holder is any different than the black plastic one that your MINI cooper S came with (the one that the license plate mounts to, not the little frame).

...not sure about the gap, as I don't have the aero kit. Maybe mferguson or someone else with the aerokit on an S can comment.

From what i've seen around there's a different holder, but it's still black plastic. It just places your plate at a different hight... umm.. it's shown on one website that has a listing of 'strange' part numbers, stuff that was discontinued or just never made it over here...
