Is that supposed to be a good thing, other than cosmetically? It doesn't mean anything performance wise does it?

Below is a photo of the VW after stage 2 of the Dakar.



Notice how all of the back has an even dirt coating. I bet that body has spent some time in a wind tunnel.

 

Actually, G4 does NOT make things "just for show". The rear wing extension works to plant the rear of the car.

Oh that makes it even more tempting. Discounts for PittStopMINI members, right? right? :arf: I'd let you photograph my car all you want.

Edit: I guess I can't get one anyways since I don't have the rear spoiler.

 

That is not a problem. Find someone with an R56 (S) spoiler for sale and put it on your justa. It is simple to do and it fits.

Are you saying your Cooper is just a plain squared-off back and then the rear hatch begins [I have NEVER seen one, is why I am asking]? My Cooper has a slight spoiler and the JSart wing looks nice on it, and it does a great job keeping the crud off the back window.

 

how strong is the splitter?
run in with a large thing of carpet that flew off a pickup on the interstate going 75mph

had to dismantle and reassemble the bumper and bent the splitter back in place...well as best as i can

 

MC rear hatch:

With MCS wing added:

Granted that my MC is an '03, but, that pseudo-spoiler is roughly the same in appearance as the one on my car, even though this is an R56. That said, Joel applied an extension onto my pseudo-spoiler. It looks great and does what it is intended to do.

 

it has whatever is the stock option for a 2010 justa

 

Mine is a 2009 MC and I don't think the hatch has change, so a wing from an R56 MCS should work fine. It did on mine.

Hi.

 

Then, there IS one for the MC that will fit. The one for the MCS is bigger. The MC spoiler extension adds just enough to the stock spoiler to make the car look sportier, but it also really DOES keep the crud off the rear window! I am more than satisfied with both my spoiler extensions...one for the MC and one for the MCS.

 

Does the JSart extension fit on the R53 "Aero" duckbill spoiler?

 

I'm not sure I can answer that, but you might contact Joel, as he designed them and would know.

 

Well I know where that spoiler that you took off can go now!

 

Got part of the exhaust, and splitter and diffuser on the way. Time to get back into the garage!

 

What is an "aero duckbill spoiler" look like ? The spoiler extension fits almost every spoiler I can think of.
Can you post a picture of your spoiler ?

The r50/53 had a spoiler associated with the aero kit. It was basically like the MCS stock spoiler but without the "hole".

 

Thanks for the picture.
The spoiler extension will fit

Hah....
Reminds me of this guy.
