Linzy, congrats on ordering your MINI and welcome to MINI2

However, you should be able to put a black JCW grille on a Cooper. I'm guessing the lower chrome surround would still be a problem, but there must be a fix for it.

Once we get this all sorted out (not long now hopefully!) I will put up a list of components and part numbers for everyone.

You can indeed have a Cooper S grill on a Cooper as i have one on mine, and you can get a normal grill in black.
