M7,
Do you have a splitter for a stock MCS front end? (The lines on an Aero bumper are a bit bit busy for my taste).

Yes we have had a splitter for the stock front end going on two years now. There is a link to our store listing and a photo of the first one we did on my car. Its still there after all these miles

The Aero Splitter does look great from the Top View. Do you have any other pics from the sides for the front-quarter shot?

Thanks.

That is my previous toy before I bought the mini. I still have it but at 7 miles per gallon it stays under a tarp a lot. It is a 1972 K5 blazer with a late model Corvette 454 with headers and exhaust cutouts I like my toys loud

Why you took the picture in front of the superior court house? Was that your court day for some kind of speeding problem with your MINI? BTW, you're parking on the RED zone.

Actualy its quite easy. One hand on the wheel and one BIG step up. My 78 yr old mother came out from CT a few years ago. Brought along a little 3 step folding ladder for her

Does this still just attach to the bumper, or does it attach to some structural part of the car?

Actually the 72 has no smog requirements as it is too " old " I took that shot on a sunday when the courthouse was closed and it was one of the more interesting backrounds close to the house.

bumper i believe....why?

The fact that it lets less air under the car will do its job, and the bumper along with the triangulated geometry of the supports should easily be enough to support it for this task.
