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.

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

I am a new Mini Cooper convertible owner. The car I bought had a busted rear third brake light. The lights worked just fine, but the red plastic cover was missing. I expected it to be very expensive, however, I went on an online search and found OutMotoring.com. I was pleasantly surprised to find out they had what I needed, and it was not expensive at all - far less than I expected! Other sites were charging more than twice as much! ordered it on the 12th, had it by the 15th (and I didn't pay expedited shipping).

I also need to get some replacements for the rear belt line trim...unfortunately those are a bit pricier, but still competitive with other sites.

I will definitely be ordering parts from here in the future!

Synopsis: YES! You can easily tow a camper that sleeps up to 6 with your MINI!
A few months ago OutMotoring made arrangements to take over TowMINI.com which offers pop up tent campers. They sleep up to 6 AND can be towed by a MINI and weigh in the 650-950lb range (well within the towing capacity for a MINI). Imagine that! We know the MINI can only travel with 4 people but hey, you never know what sort of fun you can have meeting folks at a campground with your camper- towed by a MINI! Travel in style and sleep in style. With the TowMINI 6.0 (sleeps 2), TowMINI 8.0 or 10.0 (sleeps 6) you can bring everything with you including the kitchen sink, the built in heater, air conditioning, table, seating and even a propane cooktop on your next camping trip. All of this for anywhere between 7 and 10K depending on features and models.

The TowMINI 8.0 pop up tent camper is a sweet spot as it sleeps 6 and has all of the features the 10.0 has but is a few feet shorter so it is easier to tow, store and setup. Of course, if you also have another vehicle in the garage like a smaller SUV like the Countryman you can really travel with 4 adults and have a fair amount of room for your stuff or store some in the extra space in the camper.

If you've ever considered buying a camper but are turned off by the dated styling, heavy build, potential for rust inherent to traditional 'old school' campers or rot you may want to consider researching the all aluminum light weight pop up tent campers by TowMINI.
