Hey there,

Just wondering if anyone knows of anywhere that sellsthe chrome side vents for an R56 Mini Cooper. I don't really want the Cooper S ones but so far they may have to do and maybe I can try and remove the 'S' badge or something.

Thanks.

Nothing available yet - but I'm all for getting rid of the black plastic ones.

The S looks moulded in on the MCS ones so I don't think it will come off.

A related question!

replacing the side indicator lenses....bought clear ones on ebay....pressumed they would fit..... are they the same size on the new model cooper? or have they changed the size?

I would also like to replace the black too

Answer to my related question

No....the indicator lights on the R53 are smaller than those on the R56.....

Guess I'll just have to resell them on ebay
