On the website in Switzerland it states that "airguiding" (free translated) is included. For me it does not make sense to offer this seperatly.
It somewhat does make sense to order separately. The Power Kit has a huge part common to all the N54 cars, and only a small part (aka the air ducts) are different). It would be alot worse to manage 10-12 different Power Kit part numbers than managing 2 part numbers (for MSD80 and for MSD81) and 10-12 airduct sets (altough even so it is a bit of a mess).

Altough I have to say the air duct sets are prohibitively expensive. My set consisted of 2 small plastic parts (the backplate and a front duct) and it was about $250 !
