Hey,

I have the aero kit installed on my MCS and I was wondering if anyone here has decided to use the stock grills on the aero kit. Reason is I have the chrome line package on my car and I thought if I swap the upper grill and the middle grill back to stock ones,the chrome on the car would tie up together. If anyone is running stock grills with a aero kit please input on this idea. Pictures would be nice too. Thanks and Take Care.

I went on a few sites to see how much a stock chrome grill upper and middle would cost and in the description it says it cannot be installed to the aero kit I was browsing Autotrader and I came across this 05 MCS Link and it has a aero kit with the stock grill . Any ideas?

 

the top grill is a direct swap, the lower grill might not fit too well with the aero bumper cover, but theyre both the same width,..........you shouldnt have too much trouble making it fit..........let us know how that goes

 

Is the middle grill held in with screws or how is it mounted, I haven't really checked it out. Also usually how much will the chrome grills cost at a dealer, as I had the aero kit installed when I purchased the car and I didn't get any of the original bumper or grills back.

 

middle stock grill for my 05 was held in with tabs that are glued in place and a whole mess of double stick tape.

 

I was doing a search for aero grilles and came across this picture, looks like it can be done. You may want to try and contact Aquasar, it is their MINI.
