Does anyone have any pics of the different styles of the chrome wing vents? I am after the ones most similar to the standard MCS. Also, where is the best place to buy a chrome filler cap, also as seen on an MCS? Many thanks!

Minispares do the S cap, I know for sure, lots of people have got them from there.....

I like that vent a lot! Is it possible to remove the silver mesh bit to spray it black? Thanks for the pics!

I have fitted the chrome "S" filler cap from MiniSpares. It is the official MINI item.

I also have the "sharks gill" style vents.

Just need to decide between the shark fin ones and the ones with horizontal bars now. Both look lovely. How much do they each cost?

You may find that a lot of Cooper S owners have the chrome filler cap as well.
