    I'm looking to fit the upper & lower honeycomb grills from the aero kit to my MO, however i've been told that i'll need to modify the grills before they'll fit - is this true? Has anyone had experience with fitting aero kit grills to a mini without the kit?

    Not sure about the lower piece Marc but, I think, the top piece is more or less a straight swap.

    I fitted the lower peice to my MCS bumper but I imagine that the other bumpers grill slat is simmilar, I had to cut about 1/3or 1/2 an inch of the width at the top and cut new holes in the bumper to fit the clips in to the whole lot then had to be glued in placeand held down with a weight until the glue sets,
    Do a searh on www.MINI2.com there is fitting instrutions on there somewhere.
