Boot Handle Cover: Carbon Fiber: R50/2/3

Details

Getting rid of chrome accents on your MINI can get expensive. For example, replacing the factory rear trunk lid latch handle with the official JCW Carbon Fiber part will cost nearly 2 1/2 times as much as this simple BUT PERFECT fitting real carbon fiber cover. It's dead simple to install using the supplied high bond double stick tape and takes just a few minutes. Sometimes there's just not a good reason to replace something that works perfectly well just to get a different look.

We do hear about a fair amount of the rear hatch handles having issues that require the whole rear trim part to be replaced (the factory replacement is only available as a fully functioning trunk lid - light, mechanism and all in one - not as individual pieces). However, the issues usually arise in MINIs that are 5+ years old.

If your latch is functioning fine and you just want the chrome or body-colored rear hatch handle to be carbon fiber instead, this is by far the best option.
