Details

If your MINI has 90K+ miles and you are starting to hear some clanking/creaking/grinding noises while turning or are experiencing 'loose' steering feedback you may be due for some new shock bushings.

Over time they simply fall apart and the result is the front end feels a bit 'loose' and may clank when going over uneven roads. The bearings inside the bushing can get crushed or damaged and may run dry causing them to fail. Of course, the first thing to check would be the control arm bushings as they are prone to fall apart as early as 40K miles.

SOLD INDIVIDUALLY. This upper shock mount bushing kits fits either the left or right side. You will need to purchase two kits to replace both sides. Priced as a kit including all parts shown in red.

Customers' comments

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.

*plasti-cote is your new best friend*

I just ordered the SIZE MATTERS badge. Actually I don't have a Mini but is for my Dodge Ram 1500 pick up. It's big.
