Damn this is making me sad that mine is torn apart in the driveway, but also making want to make bad financial decisions haha. Looks great man!
Do you have any more info/pics on the PIAA install? I've been dying to get some. Also how'd you do your lower aero grill? I can't seem to find any good info on installing it.

I had to cut the grill to fit the fog lights brackets but if your using the stock grill u should be fine.
To install the lower grill you will need to take off the front bumper. It's not that hard. 2 torque bolts in front 2 10mm bolts behind the side indicator lights and like 6 10mm on the bottom of the bumper by the splash guard.

Thanks Nick! The piaa install was simple. U just need to order the mini cooper brackets for the fog lights and run the wires inside the car. I used the piaa light switch.
