It must be because they were added to another playlist. Thanks for letting me know. Lots of content to come on that soon 👍🏼

A few questions. The Official install guide from Mini has instructions for moving the fog lights and having to drill new holes to mount them over slightly. Your video doesn't seem to address or show that. Is it safe to assume that the standard MCS location of fog lights is fine for the Aero bumper? The original Aero kit also came with two bottom mounting brackets, but you indicated that there is a center screw and two side screws that you can just install. DId you install the mounting brackets or does the Aero bumper holes line up with the holes in the MCS skid plate?

Your top comment I will have to check but I don’t think I’ve ever moved fog lights on an r53 when fitting this bumper. As for the brackets if you rear the instructions these are only required for the very earliest r53’s 2001 and earlier which there are not many at all

As for moving the fog lights, that may be for one/Cooper not Cooper S. double checked mine last night
