thx .. okay thx for the hint .. Universal Garage Door Opener is not approved in our country due to a frequency issue this what the dealer told me .. thx man u too .. i dont think im gonna find anything also

 

666: I have really been surprised with my Lil Guy, I expected alot from him, but he has just surpassed all my expectations. All the talk about how bad the suspension is suppose to be, the steering was suppose to have no feel, the power issue was suppose to be disappointing, there were suppose to be rattles in the hatch, the doors, the dash, all these things have NOT come to pass. Is it perfect? Heck no, name a car under $250k that is perfect, although some close, and it also depends on what one is looking for in perfection.

My Lil Guy, to me is very close, but I am going to change the outside door handles, hopefully and the rear hatch handle to carbon fibre units, which I have. I'm going to try and bribe the new, local Mini dealer and see if they will install them. I've heard that they are not easily installed. Broken glass issue, they say.

 

My first mini was 2010 MCS .. its the first time i drive mini .. n i have never regret it at all .. i really miss it when i get out of it .. so how its gonna be with the jcw .. there is no perfect car in the world .. every car has advanteges and disadvantegesm but we have to see the overall what is it .. as long i'm happy with the car i dont really care what other people think i mean i dont really take into consideration coze at the end different thoughts.

thats gr8 .. ohh okay so be careful .. im thinking of the jcw aero kit nut there is no any news about it till now .. n im thinking of the new JCW roof spoiler the white n white mounts .. i already ordered some accessories, JCW gear shift **** al cantara with shift gaiter al cantara .. JCW carbon fiber handbreak handel with the handbreak gaiter al cantara .. JCW carbon fiber cover center in the steering .. JCW floor mats .. JCW gear shift indicator .. I hope i can get info abuot the aero kit b4 i end the deal so i can add the amount of it to the final qout. for the financing.

 

Like the colour combination jcw666

666: Like I said too, no car is perfect, but to me, my Lil Guy is awfully close, and I'm about as picky as you find with cars.

 

Thx Sauron

.. I can't wait to take him from the dealer

 

Does anyone know if the JCW-body kit is available for the facelift? Rear fog lights seem different...

Was on the telephone with my dealer, he told me there was an adapter available, that would make the JCW Body Kit fit on a 2011 facelift...
I live in Belgium, so I don't know about USA...

 

What I saw, and it was on a British site, was the same JCW Aero kit that they came out with in mid year, last year. The only change was in the back up light being in the middle of the drivers side rear fog light. When they made the changes last year, put in the brake cooling ducts, and a couple of minor changes, that was their 2011 change. As for more changes being introduced this year, I really, doubt that much will be done. An off site building makes these for Mini, and Mini doesn't have much control over them. I've been told, that is one reason why the JCW Aero package hasn't been offered, factory installed, for the USA. This company can't, couldn't make enough of them, plus keep the quality up to standards.

Most of this is fact, and some is my opinion. I, along with many others, wish that a nice, individual Aero kit could have been offered for me with my JCW, but not to be. Still think that the lower door panel would look nice with the 2011 refreshed front and rear.

 

same here .. i saw it too n i didnt anything else .. ohh ya i remember once i saw 1 wihch is under testing n it has the rear air diffuser like the mini challenge .. this is the site http://www.leftlanenews.com/mini-joh...orks-2011.html .. im really confused

 

I think this is the old body kit on the 2011 facelift, because if you look closely, you can see the rear fog lights are smaller than the regular ones on the facelift :-)

 

That's right, on the JCW Aero they are still using the old style rear fog lights. There's no way that they could get the new rear fog lights into that narrow of an area, hence they are using the last years rear fog lights. And, if you look closely, the back up light is in the middle of the drivers side light.

I've seen one other JCW for 2011 that had the JCW Aero and it was at a dealership, and I can't remember where that was, but that car had the small back up lights in both of the rear fog lights. Oh well.

 

okay .. so from what i understood that there wont be a new aero kit n instead of making new one they offer an add on kit to replace the fog light to reverse light .. if that is the case i wont go for the aero kit .. i dont want to lose the facelift

here u saw it hemi .. at seattle mini .. i saw also the one with one side fog light n back up light, but this its both does this mean there is no rear fog light???

NO, it has rear fogs, it's just that they are 2007 - 2010 style rear fog lights. And boy, on this car, about the only thing that I think that they missed was Black Lounge leather seats. Even without them, I'll bet the MSRP is close to $40K, ok maybe $38K and they missed on the JCW suspension.

I'm sorry hemi but i didn't get what u mean?

All i see is the backup light in the middle of the fog lamp, so where is the fog lamp?

 

[quote=jcw666;3158548]The rear Fog Lights are the red light, that surrounds the back up light. Weird, but it does work, they tell me. They do the same thing, only on one rear taillight, on the clubmans. Just like on my JCW and yours, the back up light is in the middle of the rear Fog Light. Same for the JCW Aero, except that the rear Fog Light is smaller in shape.

 

[quote=hemisedan;3158551]OKAY .. so that it is .. gr8 .. thx hemi
