It appears to be a FORTECH bodykit. Probably the widest kit available - it widens the car by about 5 inches on each side. The kit usually includes the front and rear skirts too.

There was a cheaper immitation called the FORTEK..... same, just cheaper.

This one has much larger wheels under the same arches...... and a V6 under the bonnet

Did a bit of a seach seems like these guys have them and even they say their a really bad kit for fitting (must mean their really bad)

http://www.autofashion.co.uk/bodykits.htm

so it looks like you can get them in the UK but by the looks, mostly only used on racecars (tubeframed) wouldn't last too long on the open road.

I am still interested to see if anyone's gone mental on a race mini in OZ, or someone knows much about them
