Any one install aero side skirts without the little "grill" pieces?

Hi, I ordered the aero side skirts few weeks ago. Very excited they came in today. However, where I ordered forgot to ship the two little black plastic "grill" pieces go at the end of the skirts (I know they are sold separately and I did order them).

So, do you think I should go ahead and install without those pieces (meaning leaving the holes open) and get a refund, OR wait for them to be shipped then install?

Any one did not install those "grills" on your aero? Any pics?

Thanks.

I think the grills add a nice touch. I say wait to get those. I don't have a close-up shot of my car with them to show you.

Thanks guys for your replies.

I called the local Mini dealer this morning to see if they have any in stock, there was. So, I went to the local dealer, picked them up and installed already.

Yes, agree that the grills give a nice touch to the skirts, better looking than just a hole there.
