United-Kingdom Cooper S body kit

HI,

Does anyone know where I can get the body kit to make my Cooper look like a Cooper S?

Thanks.

I believe Coolnew.co.uk sell the cooper s kit and everything that you need to make it look like an s... bonnet, body kit, badge, skirts, spoiler etc...

Hope that helps

ebay or a breakers yard are far cheaper to get the bits, might take a bit of hunting down and work, but thats where I would start

The only problem I have is knowing which one to drive?

hi there, I recently done the same conversion to my mini One and it looks fantastic, I was lucky because a fairly local MINI2er had some S bumpers going spare and I bought them, your best bet would be to check local breaker yards and ebay, there is actually a cooper S front bumper on ebay at the minute , it might be worth a look

Ebay: Cooper S Front Bumper

Hi JP,

Do you have any pics of your cooper S conversion?

Did you tell the insurance company ?

Would adding a cooper s kit affect the Manufacturers warranty ?

Thanks.

Alex there is a few pictures in my gallery but there are not the best quality, I havnt had the time recently to get some updated

I contacted my insurance co, and told them that I added new bumpers which are standard on the Cooper S, they took a note but didnt increase my preimum

TBH I didnt think about the warrenty but I cant imagine if they are standard bumpers on the S that it would be an issue
