Review on Glossy Black Hood Scoop for Mini Cooper R56 S R55/R57/R58/R59 2007-2013 with ATEX Feature by Ahmed Jackson

Some imperfections but otherwise ok

Fits my 2011 Mini Hardtop. However, the kit does not include the plastic mounting pins needed for mounting to the vehicle body. Had to spend another $20 at the mini retailer. Also, the metal screws used to attach the pictured grid surface to the bucket do not fit into the corresponding holes on the actual hooded bucket. Using the first one caused a crack in the hood scoop bolt hole so I reused the originals from my old hood scoop which fitted correctly. It's plastic after all, we'll see how it holds up over time. It's a different shape than the OEM hood scoop, but it fits and looks pretty good once installed.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Some imperfections
