Nik & Ian B....awesome photos, very jealous. I think I will go for the black at the back now after seeing these, just finishes it off I think.

Ian B - Your JCW scuttles on the photos, did you buy the scuttles on their own (so direct fit into Cooper S scuttle carriers) or did you have to buy new carries too?

Thanks, thought that would be the case, oh well.

Got some prices from the chaps at M Style today. This was for the JCW body & performance kit, along with some JCW alloys. Swaying more towards the two kits (can't get all 3), but not sure what my crown spoke alloys will look like with the body kit....anyone got any pics at all?

Thanks

Cheers for the pics Ian B, it does look awesome, very happy .

I spoke to Gary from M Style today and confirmed what work I wanted, and he told me the JCW performance kit I wanted was not available for my car, something about it only being available up to a certain age. I've got a 2008 (08) R56, he said that if I wanted this it would have to come straight from JCW factory Is this right? I called my local BMW/MINI dealer and they said they could get it and fit it (all be it costing £2,500+), so I don't understand now. Has anyone else bought this from M Style or another specialist?

Thanks,

I guess that MStyle don't have the BMW diagnostic equipment available to them. They can probably fit the parts, it's just the fine tuning etc that they can't do...

Might be worth contacting Derek Woodman Mini, they can usually do good prices think they're in Blackpool.

Great, cheers for the help from both of you, appreciate it. Think I'll do some more ringing around see who I can get to fit the performance kit.
