I have the topmost honeycomb grill (that goes in the bonnet) and the black 'whiskers' that mount towards the bottom. I have the slim middle honeycomb grill but it is missing a corner and was modified to fit the standard bumper. I don't have the lowest grill. I also have the license plate plinth.
This is still for sale, and I need the $ - my a/c compressor needs replacing, which isn't cheap.

Hi: Years ago I bought a Gen1 aero front bumper skin, new and unpainted, intending to install it on my 2004 MCS. Never got around to it and other priorities have set in. $400.
-
Been there done that.
-
Thanks for the various suggestions, but my understanding is that if the refrigerant had leaked out, such as through a ruptured hose, the pressure sensor would prevent the compressor from engaging. As my compressor does engage, I don't think the problem is low or missing refrigerant.
I'm still looking for a shop that has experience with Mini a/c but is trustworthy and charges less than the dealers.

Radiator fan fully functional. Idle, full speed, makes no difference; a/c anemic
-
Anemic. Compressor engages, cabin air fan works, but air that comes out is not very cool.
-
2004 MCS, 125K. a/c is anemic, and I have exhausted my diagnostic skills in trying to figure out why. MachV doesn't do a/c work; any suggestions? Hesitant to take it to the dealer. TIA.

Do you mean 'fix it'?
-
I recall that former DCMM member Mark Matarella had one; perhaps others as well.
-
Can't wait to hear about curb rash repair options. I have a set of 17" S-lites, without tires, waiting for touch-up.
-
Things to bring should also include two-way radios, I assume?

I have two torque wrenches, both Sears Craftsman. The older one is a 'beam' style one that ranges to 70 Newton metres, 600 inch pounds. The newer one is a 'dial' or 'click' wrench, that ranges to 210 Newton metres, 150 foot pounds. I bought this newer one specifically for lug nuts.
-
Look for sales at Sears, or go to Harbor Freight, which has a store in Woodbridge and is opening a new store in Chantilly or Sterling sometime soon.

MachV in Sterling

I hate you. Bad enough that I'm not going this year (4x veteran) but to rub salt in the wound, it's tax day!
-
I'll take everything in the last two pix, except the touch-up paint.

It is well worth the trip. A mix of classic hot rods, exotics, muscle cars, sports cars of all description, etc.
-
Very good news . . .
-
Thanks. Great deal, and MiniDoMore advises that it will fit my car, but I just developed a radiator leak, need new tires . . . so regretably I will pass.
-
I have asked MiniDoMore whether that will fit my 2004 MCS with back-up light. If it does, I might be interested.
-
Your title says 15". I'm confused.
-
Excellent! Should be mandatory viewing for all first-timers, and a valuable refresher for veterans as well.
-
Yes, I was there several weeks ago. Amazing.

Did anyone tour the service reception lounge in the BMW building? Spectacular.

That 'likely route' link is not terribly helpful.
