I am looking to lessen the amount of chrome on my MINI Cooper (Pre face lift BRG).

Therefore my questions are as follows:

Can you buy the bumper inserts pre-painted?
Roughly how much is an aero grill?
Does any one have any pictures of what I am trying to achieve (or similar). This is a summary:
MINI Cooper Pre Facelift
BRG Body
BRG Roof
No Aero Kit
No Stripes
No Spots
S-Spokes
Red brake calipers
BRG Bumper Inserts
Cooper S Filler Cap
Aero Grill

Thanks for your help

Can you buy the bumper inserts pre-painted? Yes i believe they clip on and are re-movable/interchangable, you sometimes see the inserts on ebay although its sometimes just easier to buy a 2nd hand bumper with the insert already in. Check out ebay or a breakers!

Roughly how much is an aero grill? Approx 50GBP although it will need adapting to fit the front bumper, the top bonnet bit will fit tho!

Spoke to my dealer today, and he said that you can't but anything other than Chrome inserts....
