    actually, you will need a dremel to modify the side markers from the standard bumper to fit. not a big deal but something nobody mentions

    and I have a Dark Silver one from my '09 JCW that I will sell. I replaced it with the JCW Aero front bumper. PM me for more details.

    Someone that did not know how to parallel park took a nice chunk out of my bumper. Good thing was I saw them trying to leave and caught them. Got their insurance info so I am trying to figure out if I should stay with the standard S bumper of move towards the aero. I currently have the euro arches without the parking lights.

    Not sure you can get the aero bumper w/o the side markers?

    Check my gallery for pics of my car with the front aero bumper.

    Aero bumper has the arch section already molded in, has to use the side markers or fill in that area on the bumper.

    I personally had mine filled in. Cost the same for my painter to do as it would have been for new lights.
