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.
All I can say is wow! This sway bar installed easily. The NM Engineering instructions are excellent. I could feel the difference even backing out of the garage. I started it out on setting 3 out of 4, but will be moving to the stiffest setting shortly. The Mini handled great stock, so I was a little skeptical about how much of a difference this bar would make. Boy am I glad I elected to give it a try. Completely worth the expense.
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.

Search high and low across Canada for a Mini wheel well access cover. Small piece of plastic that enables access to back of head lights. Mini Canada said i would have to buy a full wheel well for approximately $180.00 CDN. Came to this site and found the access cover SKU 51772751776, $8.25!
Ordered these on a Wed. and received them on Friday-excellent. Quality is very good and they look super. Way cheaper than OEM covers. Easy install, took about 5 minutes for both using a pampered chef plastic scraper. Don't hesitate, buy 'em.
