Hi Guys,
New here, but have been reading the forums for quite a while. So far it's been really useful, so glad to be a member
I've got a Monwalk Grey MC on order, decided to get it over the MCS because of fuel consumption and the fact that it really does seem to be as fast as I'd like my car to be (had to buy without testing, but took the plunge). The one thing that I did like about the MCS however, is how it looks, so with some accessories I was hoping to create my own sort of 'Hybrid" here (I know, a little bit of cheating
)
I've seen the MCS rear primed spoiler for sale on some sites, I live in Spain so for example this site would deliver:
http://www.minigenuineparts.co.uk/mini-parts/info_BM51_62_7_375_850.html
Would love to fit this on my MC, however i'm not sure it can be done. The dealership doesn't know and then I emailed the guys from this site, and they came back to me with a vague and unhelpful;
"The only spoiler that will fit your F56 would be the one for the cooper which is different from the JCW."
I don't fully trust this answer, to me it sounds a little like "Let's not run any risks by selling this guy something he 'may' not be able to fit"...
Does anyone know if the small spoiler of the MC can be easily replaced with the bigger MCS one? (ie/same set of nuts/bolts or has it simply been stuck on?)
I don't have the car yet and have no means to check out the MC and MCS and how the spoilers seem to be fitted (I bought through a BMW dealer so they have no MINI's on display). I'm sure I'm not the only one considering this, so any info would be great!
Thanks!
