What does the brake duct tube go to? I see there is a template for the fender liner 3 tab access panel.

Hopefully I can install my kit this weekend! I may have to fab up the lower front grille but I'm determined to make it work.

Red Hotz - There should be a template with that hole for the fender liner circle access disc that lines up the hole to the brake duct to be trimmed,. The back side of the brake duct tube pokes through and thus venting air to the front brakes.

I looked at the template again and it looks like I match up the 3 tab access hole and the oblong brake duct hole is to the side of it.

Yep. And I think you flip it on the other side wheel well.

Can you still use the existing jacking blocks under the side skirts?

I think you can jack it up just fine with a jack pad (to rotate/change your wheels), but you may need those flat jack stands if you want to put the car on jack stands at the jacking points.

You can, the jack pads still stick out of the JCW side skirt about an inch or so.

Hahaha... I guess after a few years of autocross and constant jacking of the front points, I do not even have an inch left. My rears look ok though. I need to get me some new ones.

And a upgrade mod for the R60 CM.

Since F56 is on the streets, I'm still waiting for my JCW rear spoiler for a ridiculously cheap price for my R56 Cooper!
It is still expensive. There is no way

Just waiting ...

There is a 1st Gen GP Spoiler in the classifieds. Not sure if it can be mounted to a 2nd Gen car or not..
