Aero Kit

Does anyone know where I can buy a Factory Aero Kit for my car that is already painted?
Thanks

Classic MINI in mentor Ohio has the best prices on OEM Parts, and for a while they had a sale on Cooper (only) aero kits pre-painted for 800 dollars. So they do do pre-painted parts....so i would call them and ask

thanks for the tip. I bought an aero kit for my 2002 and its all unpainted, its a hassle to find a place I trust to paint it. I want another one for my 2004 that comes prepainted for i can put it on asap. Thanks again

I bought my painted aero skirts from Classic. Be sure to tell them you are a NAM member to get our discount. Great people, very helpful.

Classic gave me prices recently:
Pre-painted side skirts retail $324 / NAM $259 (each)
Primed side skirts retail $245 / NAM $196 (each)
I forgot to ask them about how long it takes for pre-painted skirts. I think someone said they are special order items from Germany and take something like 4 weeks.

Yes, those are the correct prices. Not sure where they come from but mine took 3-4 weeks. Well worth the extra to have them already painted and ready to go as soon as they arrived. Cheaper than having them painted locally also.

SHRTSTAK - thanks for the compliment. Looks clean in the photo but sure doesn't right now.

By "each" I assume you mean $259 for the left skirt and $259 for the right skirt?

doubt it. I bought my aero kit from classic mini it cost me $850 for the front and rear bumper and the side skirts. And that was even pre-painted.

Yes, Classic MINI quoted me $259 for ONE pre-painted skirt (list price $324 each). The 2006 MINI accessories catalog lists $245 for a unpainted left skirt and $245 for an unpainted right skirt.

Jtrem, did you purchase your kit during a special offer from Classic MINI? They have run them a few times on NAM. You got a really good deal!

IrishCooper, pre-painted comes with black trim, not completely body colored.
