Odd, I thought the aero kit had louvers in the side skirt...

 

And I don't like the way it cuts them off either.

 

It looks like a shortened Clubman..

 

That's the JCW aero kit... this is the "Hyper-Sport" aero kit.

There's another aero kit on the way, too: The JCW aero kit that's only going to be availible on the factory JCW cars... and it's NOT that same as the JCW kit we've allready seen. You will NOT be able to get the third aero kit except on a factory ordered/prepped JCW car. Confused?:impatient

Hopefully MINI will learn from the mistakes on this one.

 

As far as the "Hyper" front end goes... I don't think it's the shape that's so horid. It's the fact that there's no integration with the rest of the car (specifically the arches). Once again, I have very limited Paint skills, but this isn't "too" bad... (JCW Front is still better)

 

OK, just to get all of the "versions" we came up with for this Aero kit together in one post:

Std version (As far as we know)



Matched Arches:



Black side sills and arches:



Black arches, matched side sills:



And finally, Matched side sills, black arches and color matching that weird insert:
