    Ah, spring... time for my annual dalliance with the idea of getting an aero kit.

    Anyone know a good current source for the aero kit? Anyone HAVE an aero kit they want to unload? Last, anyone seen any recent 3rd party bumper/side skirt kits that are NOT aero that make the Mk.1 MINI look more like the NEW MINI? I really like the large foglamp look of the Mk.2 MINI's upgraded front bumper...

    Thanks in advance...

    -Matt

    Matt- I think Aaron has them. I have also seen bumpers for sale on the other site. Take a look you may be able to save some money.

    A banner as a replacement for an aero kit would be pretty cool. :crazy:

    MARK: I did... I know I've got it somewhere around here, but I don't remember where. I had it made for the St. Patrick's Day Parade we drove in, but since we haven't done that in a few years it's squirrled away somewhere, sorry...

    Thanks Matt. Sounds like a new banner is in order for the MoM cabin at MOTD this year. (Now back to you're regularly scheduled thread )

    There is a R53 Aero front bumper listed on NAM & MU.
    A very nice kit, that you can get in sections, is the Orciari.
    You can order straight from them in Italy.
    Prior makes a nice kit but expensive.
    If you have a bank account like the U.S. debt to China, only positive, you might look at Battle Performance.
    Put your tongue back in your mouth.
