    Great video! I installed this kit today with no issues.
    Here is the OEM factory parts list needed to complete the kit:
    (1) MINI GP2 Diffuser Air Duct Left 51-74-7-330-559
    (1) MINI GP2 Diffuser Air Duct Right 51-74-7-330-560
    (1) MINI GP2 Diffuser Air Duct Center 51-74-7-330-558
    (1) MINI GP2 Rear Diffuser Bracket Left 51-74-7-370-213
    (1) MINI GP2 Rear Diffuser Bracket Right 51-74-7-370-214
    (6) MINI Hex Bolt with Washer 07-14-7-117-693
    (4) MINI Torx Bolt 07-14-7-075-519
    (4) MINI Body Clip Nut 07-12-9-904-150
    (2) MINI Torx Screw 07-14-7-212-669
    (1) MINI Clip Nut 51-12-7-070-202
    This will include all the bolts, screws, and clips necessary. The factory installed 8mm hex head bolt for the bracket on the right side of the car will be replaced with a Torx screw (07-14-7-212-669). The existing left side bracket will need a clip nut (51-12-7-070-202) installed and will be connected with the other Torx screw (07-14-7-212-669). The 4 Torx bolts (07-14-7-075-519) are self-tapping and will be used with the corresponding clip nuts (07-12-9-904-150) to connect the diffuser air ducts to the plastic belly pans.

    Looks awesome. One day i plan to fit diffusers to my R53, i know it's a ball ache to do on these though (not overly keen on the Leap one). Never been a fan of fitting just the outer part for the looks, it looks awkward when you can see it from the side and it just abruptly stops lol. Between this R56 and the R55 you had, i'm slowly but surely coming around to the later turbo minis haha

      Hi if you mean the two tiny bits of trim you have to remove them to get better access for the screws however try clipping them on and see if they go back in Planck when you are done 👍🏼

    Any chance you can install the Diffuser without the brackets and airflow ducts? It'll look the same once the car is back on the ground right? Just curious what my options are and if it would stay in place without brackets and just the diffuser on it's own. TY!

    • @tweedbean

      Do you mean you have a Mini one? If so you cannot fit this diffuser with a side exhaust, it has to be a centre exit S, JCW or custom exhaust.

      Part numbers are only different because the GP2 doesn't have rear parking sensors, but in terms of fitments they're identical
