They fit fine. The front of the aero skirts contour, slopes inward at the bottom. The stock are more flat. You just have to pre-fit and pre-drill before you pull the tape strip.Clean area with plastic cleaner or alcohol. As far as the dirt issue the help a little because they are little.

Please see the pic at http://www.mini2.com/forum/showthrea...00#post1273000

Yes they do come in 4 x 100 but it is quite difficult to get them though.

Very nice looking. Off topic: Your profile stated that you are from Thailand. Did the earthquake affect you?

I see that it is lowered with an Aero Kit. What suspension set up did you used? I see blue springs but I can't remember who sells blue springs.
