Received my order today Fri Mar 5, as usual excellent service with an excellent product,liked the idea that you guys sold the grill as a 2 piece rather than having to order two seperate pieces,like some of the other suppliers, will be dealing with you again in the future.Cheers Bill

Excellent fit. I bought the matte black to try and match the rest of the trim and it looks factory installed.
Removing the OE chrome grill "nuts" was a bit of a pain, so I elected to just snap the plastic threads off rather than attempt to remove them. I wouldn't plan on keeping the OE grill as the plastic threads and stamped nuts are practically destroyed no matter how gentle you are.
The upper grill snaps in and use the same fasteners as the OE. The new stamped nuts can be a bit annoying, just seat the nut on the ball of your thumb and turn. Once the nut cuts into the plastic use a nut-driver to snug up--don't over tighten.
The lower grill just snaps in. I cleaned and plasti coted the bumper black, as you can see the bumper color behind the new grill--my car is red so it really stood out.
This grill makes the car look so much better and more up to date. I really like it.

I bought a Convertible Rear Beltline Trim Kit for my R52 . I was really concerned if it was going to fit like the original. This part is very expensive, so I was quite concerned. I finally bought it and it was the best thing I bought for my Mini. It fit perfect. Outmotoring customer service was amazing. These guys are a class act. Thank you.
I just installed the 22 mm rear sway bar from NM Engineering and have to say it really performs like expected and advertised. It has high quality mounting brackets and has significantly reduced the understeer found in the stock Mini.
