My friend following me home from picking up my S JCW this past Monday mentioned that the JCW dual exhaust really sit lower in the back...stick out I would say. not tucked in like the stock S. I know there isn't much room underthe car to stuff the exhaust, but has someone found a solution to hiding the dual cans??

Is the Aero kit rear bumper much lower than stock? would it cover these huge knockers??

The Aero kit rear can't be that low at the muffler tip area because it still has to fit the stock tips. It might end lower to the ground elsewhere though.

Take a look at these photos (JCW MCS with aerokit) and compare it with your install. If yours is too low then take it back to the dealer to rehang. Maybe just readjust would be good enough.




Rear bumper of Aerokit with stock MCS exhaust-check the height for yourself.

Personally, I like the look of the exhaust with my JCW.
Sort of gives it a more "masculine" look (if you know what I mean).

 

This might mean something but I've seen 4 works packages to date, and on 2 of them the exhaust was not centered proparly...maybe in order to avoid that they installed yours a little differently.

Are you saying your car's got *****?

hehehehe lol
I checked with a friend, and he pointed out that if you stand back or look at a JCW Mini from a SUV you will see the dual cans. I thank Minihune for the fotos, but I wonder if the they would show more cans if taken in this way.

The JCW brochure shows the cans hanging down, perhaps for the same reason Mr. Bean has in mind!

 

Perhaps it's just me, but I would wear those twin pipes as a badge of honor, not attempt to make them even lower profile.
