I was looking at buying the Mini Cooper JCW GP Rear Diffuser Kit R56 Hatchback 2012-2013 and I have a 2012 Mini JCW R58 Coupe with the aero bumper.

The seller is telling me that it fits the JCW w/ Aero bumper R56 but is not sure if it will work for the R58... I was hoping that maybe someone here has had experience with one and can tell me if it will in fact fit.

Thanks so much!!!

Yes, fits Coupes and Roadsters S/JCW with the JCW body kit. Great mod on these cars, looks great. Simple DIY fit too, I did mine on a set of cheap drive up ramps.

 

Post photos if/when you install it. Would love to see how it looks.

 

Will they fit with 3" Invidia Q300 exhaust on?

 

Stock Cooper S exhaust...

 

I have never seen mud flaps on a Mini with a JCW aero kit before. I suppose you also have them at the front.

 

I do. The back ones fit as-is, the front need modification, I re-shaped them with a wooden template and a heat gun. There's a thread in the Roadster section. Seems to help quite a bit in the winter.

 

That's awesome. Looks amazing.

 

Thanks! Here's my thread on fitment if you need it: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ml#post3872086

 

The finished product is totally amazing.

 

Yea, if you have the JCW aero kit and you need flaps, this even looks better then the rally armor ones. It really follows the lines.

 

I have a club member with an R56 that put the diffuser on with his larger exhaust tips and he had to shave a fair amount off with a dremel(to the point where it has one less clip in it now) in order for it to fit and not rub.

With JCW exhaust:

 

Yeeeesh. Not sure how that would look.

 

Its not noticeable from the outside, it just trimmed down the flat part between the two ducts.

 

Ahhh...ok.
