Those are called rivets which are extremely durable and strong when installed correctly using a rivet gun, however, standard stainless bolts and nuts sourced from a local hardware store will work just as well.
I had a bit of disappointment today when my new hitch arrived - it was not the correct model for my car.
In retrospect, I looked back at the ordering page and found that it was my mistake but I could see why. I searched for a hitch for a Mini-S R53 and it took me to a 1001 which is for a non-S R50. The model numbers for the hitches and the cars they match up with were at the very bottom of the page, which I didn't see when ordering. It would have been very helpful if the drop-down menu had not just the hitch model number (1003) but the car model as well (R50, R53...) to help avoid this confusion.
It cost me return shipping and another week or more of wait. Not fun.

The Best Looking Chrome 'Turbo' badge you will find anywhere period! It looks perfect underneath your 'Cooper S' badge.

Ordered a quicksilver exhaust for my 2007 mini Cooper S and then found it on the competitors website for cheaper. I called and spoke with Aaron and he matched the price. I was very happy . I’ve ordered a few other parts and they have always come in a timely manner. All I would have to do is email Aaron and he would give me the tracking number right away.
Great service!
Purchased to replace the well-worn original with a quarter-million miles on it. This is a MINI part so it fits perfectly and looks great. Easy to install but be careful with the clips.
