Not firm pricing (I'll know for sure when all parts come in). About $140ish, both RH & LH with brackets and all of the various OEM fasteners included. -
Thanks, that's not bad at all!

I thought that these were standard on the 2nd Gen MINIS. These will also work on the first gen MINIS with some minor cutting on the front of the panels and cost about a third of the price of the GP under panels. Here are some rough pics when we put them on Kelli's car:

That's what I'm talking about!!!!

For those of us in wetter climates (with road salt) do you think it will potentially cause more rust (or inhibit) water from washing away? Also is it metal or a PVC product? If its PVC, perhaps drilling some holes will help with draining (?)
Looking forward to seeing how you like it!

If you want it really smooth I think Mark or Richard will have to crawl under with a creeper and clay and wax it for you :lol:

I'm thinking the two panels are a plastic polymer. Almost all of the OEM fasteners are those plastic rivet thing's with only a couple being metal screws & bolts. If you look real close at the first picture posted by Wes, you'll see some teardrop shaped holes (looks like a cheese grater), they are shaped to aide in drainage. The panels are actually spaced away from the floor pan by those cone shaped indents. I'll also take some pictures as well. -

These are "kind of" standard on second gen's from what I've seen. Some report having them standard and some don't. Mine didn't come with them. -

Hmmmm.......
I wonder what the deciding factor is that determines what the content build is when these little boxes come down the line. It seems like once you order a vehicle, it would be built complete. Who's going to get down on the knees and say "Hey.... you didn't finish building my car..... so now the price comes down a little.... right"?
Unless of course, it's all included as part of the complete aero kit. This could be the deciding factor maybe???? -
Thanks for the pics Batrugger.
I would love to add these to my R53, but do think they would play very well with my TSW X-brace.
I guess we can't have both.
