Chrome Bonnet Scoop...yup again. - MINI Cooper Forum

Winnie Bloo · #1 (**permalink**) Jul 18th, 2005, 07:27 PM

I have checked out the threads with reference to Chrome Bonnet Scoops and can´t find the answer, therefore I need your help please folks.

A friend in the UK said he has seen an Italian Chrome Bonnet Scoop advertised in "Go Mini", priced at around 270 big ones...

Anyone seen one? If so, do they have the grill inside, or is it open like the OEM?

I have ordered one from another source and just waiting for it to arrive, just wondered what the "Italian" one was like.

Thanks,

Winnie Bloo

Thank´s Minty....see you are from near my old neck of the woods

Any idea if they will have the "grill" inside the scoop?

Thanks again for taking the time to reply

i would say it will look like the normal one...just in chrome, so no grill inside.

Mmmmmmmm thanks for that....Now this is interesting.

The pictire of this Scoop is used on a popular auction site and was the one I thought I was bidding for ( even has the same reflections in the picture! )....However, when it finally arrived.....

it is made in Taiwan, and has the grill inside

Now is this fair trading?

I have to admit, I feel a little "miffed".................or is it just me
