I was just wondering, what does everyone think about the kit?
I know there's a lot of you out there who have it, what made you decide to get it?
For those of you who don't, do think it sort of BMW's up the car?

I like it but I don't know if it's really for me. I think it kinda of takes away from a lot of the standard mini characteristics, but then maybe that's a good thing as far as individuality goes. I'm not much of a sports care person and I don't think I'd like a package like that on another car, but something about it looks nice on the mini.

Anyway just curious. Oh and how come every car I've seen with the kit has the rally lights? Those are still extra right?

To be honest, i don't really fancy the aero kit (no offence to those who have it, it's just an opinion). I think i'll waite and see if other kits will be available in the future.
I was planning to install a kit on my car after a couple of years when i get bored of the way it looks, but I think i can scratch that out cuz the more time i spend with my MCS (Sunny) the more i fall in love with it

Personally, for the price, I like the look of the painted wheel arches more than a complete aero kit. I think I'll wait until next years SEMA show and see if anything new comes out that is a little more aggressive.
