JCW aero kit price

Can someone give me a price on how much each part on the JCW aero kit costs? I would like to buy the whole kit, but since im still in high school my funds are limited, and i would probably end up buying the parts at different times.
Can anyone help? BTW, my mini is chili red.

Not sure you can buy the JCW aero kit in seperate pieces, -I've only seen the side skirts for sale (they were $700).

The entire kit is $1595 from most dealers and another $1000-$1200 for painting and installation (they charged me $1100 for that service, yet I've heard some people charged more).

You can order the kit from Morristown Mini for $1276.00. -and have it painted by a local body shop for probably around $500, then install yourself.

Buying the kit in pieces you may miss out on some of the other things the entire kit comes with. The entire kit comes w/ blackout grill, JCW side door pieces (when you open the door it says JCW on the lower portion of the door sills), oh, and I believe you get larger exhaust tips (unless those are stock on the S models now)? -mine seems to have larger exhaust tips than most coopers I see. -oh, and rear fog lights come w/ the kit (at least they did w/ mine + I assume they come w/ all the kits). -so that would include wiring and toggle switch for the lights as well. So, buying in pieces you may miss out on some of those extras?

RealOEM lists all the parts:
You can check discounted pricing from Pelican Parts or list pricing from Motorwerks or get a price quote from Classic.

Thanks guys!! I have already retrofitted the JCW grill trim on my Cooper, and am thinking that i will buy the actuall JCW grill. I am lucky my cooper came with rear fogs. My salesman said that because my Mini is chili red that I may not have to pay to get it painted, beause it such a popular color that the factroy stocks aero kits in chili red.

Keywords placed in bold.It would be great if they did but honestly I doubt that they stock the kit in Chili Red from the factory.

According to RealOEM there are kits painted in certain colors:

JCW Aerodynamics Package

But they cost more than the primed kits

No! You mean they charge you money to paint it?

Why shouldn't they charge more for a prepainted kit? More labor involved in it....

JCW Aero Kit

Sketch
back to your original question. I checked on this before i bought my 09jcw. the side skirts are about $1000, so it made no sense to buy just the side skirts as you can buy the whole kit from $1250-$1500 depending on your source. As you know the side skirts are in two pieces. It will be a while before you will be able to get the JCW kit at similar deals we were able to get on the r53, but if you are patient im sure they will come and you might get lucky and find one painted your color.
