Can you paint the black parts (wheel flares and rocker panels) without replacing them with the kit?

Yes

 

CooperGear,

The fit and finish looks great I want one! I don't want to drill holes Oh well.

 

Oops, I mean BrownFlyer! 5 months! I can't even wait for instant oatmeal.

 

Welcome to NAM Frog!

I'll keep everyone updated. I will be producing one in the next few weeks and depending on how that goes, I might decide to give it a go for a few more.

 

If you produce these I want to be first on the list!!!

 

Brownflyer's next cabrio wing is going on my '06 MCS DS cabrio..
Why would anyone hesitate to drill holes for this beautiful wing??? Who would ever want to take it off?? Not me!!!

Keep in mind that you have to de-badge the rear to fit the spoiler... I loved the idea of this until I thought about that for a while - I love my MINI wings back there. Still, if you don't care about that, it's a super-nice piece...

 

Already have that covered...the Mini wing emblem will move to the left side of the boot...will balance with the Cooper S emblem..

Interesting... I'll look forward to seeing how that turns out for you.

 

Brownflyer has shipped my Cabrio Wing with built-in LED brake light to me. It's somewhere between CA & GA...due here Jan. 2.... Can't wait to see it..Planning to take pics of the installation......Stay tuned...

Received my custom made Cabrio Rear Wing from Brownflyer yesterday...took it to my painter today. I'm planning to take pics of installation and post them as I go...

Brownflyer does very high quality work!!!

OK, how do I get one? Is this still in the testing phase? Can I volunteer to be a guinee pig? More info please!!

 

I'm not sure if Ev (brownflyer) plans to make more Cabrio wings...I was fortunate to purchase the first one he made that has the brake light built into the wing. You can look for his post at this thread and PM or email him.
Good luck,
gaminis

 

Did you get it installed yet? Pics?

 

Just got em back from the paint shop today. Took the guy forever to get to them, but he only charged 60 bucks to paint & clear coat them (there are three pieces; the long boot piece and two pieces that go in the sides).
I'll take some pics when I install them. I'll probably make some sort of templates to get the holes right.

Brownflyer made mine. He incorporated the brake light into it. I plan to remove the OEM brake light and replace it with chrome trim.

BTW..Don't know if he intends on making more spoilers. I'm very fortunate to have gotten one from him.

 

Hi Frank,
Trust everything is going well. I'm anxiously waiting your install of the spoiler. Please send me a pm or email as I have more info for you.

I will be at AMVIV this March. For anyone that wants to take a look at the spoiler, look me up and I will give you the grand tour. There will be a new little surprise....

 

All I can say is Brownflyer, u did good.

 

very impressive work brownflyer! Kudos!

 

Here is a quick update,
Frank (gaminis) has installed his 3 piece spoiler and can be viewed here:

Excellent work on the install Frank, and the paint is dead on. More pics please. If you need advice on eliminating the 3rd brake light just send me an email. Now that your MINI is out of the closet... mine will be next.

 

As usual Brownflyer, awesome job. The new wing with the brake light looks GREAT!!!

 

I installed the Erebuni on my 06 Cabrio S and had it painted. I think it looked pretty good. It definately helped keep the rear window clean. I now have a 09 R57 and want to put on another one.
