Spoiler differences

I did a couple searches trying to find a side-by-side comparison of the different spoilers that are available from MINI, and I ran across this thread:

https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ad.php?t=27275

Granted, those are for the first generation model, but I was wondering if those pictures are still valid for the second generation. If not, could anyone throw together a similar comparison?

Even though I've got some time before I put my order in, I'm still hemming and hawing over these little details. The car must be quintessentially me.

I have an 07 Cooper and the spoiler is closer to the aero kit spoiler but not quite the same. I heard the 08 Cooper got a smaller spoiler than what they put on the 07 Cooper. The S spoiler is similar to the previous generation.

I don't have pics specifically of the spoiler, but if you look in my gallery you can see the Cooper spoiler and the Cooper-S spoiler. As DanF says the Cooper spoiler looks similar to the aero spoiler. The Cooper-S has a support in the middle.

I should take some pics, if no one else has them.

I forget to take the pictures in daylight. Here's the MC spoiler (from 07):



And the MCS spoiler (from 08):

does anyone know if the jcw spoiler is still around? or did that get toned-down to the S spoiler?
