Hood Scoop Compatible with 2007-2013 Mini Cooper S R55 R56 R57 R58 R59 Air Intake Vent Unpainted-Black

Fits and looks great! The carbon fiber look is very convincing. Make sure to order the new fasteners to go with it because the existing fasteners will probably break when you remove the old hood scoop. No problems with warping after some very hot days in the sun here. The shape is more sporty and aggressive than the stock one.

Perfect fit. Looks good made of good quality.

Most import thing is it doesn’t come with the clips that pop into the hood but you can reuse the old one if u kept them, the fit perfect and pretty easy to install and looks great. Would definitely recommend for other Mini Cooper s owners. Ps be carful when handling the trim on the edge of the hood because it’s very brittle from the heat of the turbo, mine broke off while putting this on.

I use a rating scale for starts . Deductions are indicated by a -1.0 to ~.05 Followed by a clear description of why the rating score was lowered. REVIEW What a beautiful product! •The finish is flawless •carbon fiber has deep rich appearance • DEEP HIGH GLOSS FINISH FITMENT •I was very surprised with the OUTSTANDING fit. • Smooth as glass EQUAL seams • all holes matched up perfectly INSTALLATION ~.10. * Instructions are lacking much detail. • 20 minutes tops if you don’t break anything or if you receive all the necessary installation components TOOLS REQUIRED • One Phillip Screw Driver &/or T25 Starbit • Trim removal prying tool • I used car painters tap too mask off pry point to ensure no paint damage. PARTS PACKAGE ~.75 • 5 arrow pins required for installation DO NOT COME WITH VENT! ~25 •This entire process is purposefully EXCLUDED Odeon instructions. ~.50 *Must RE-USE, original OEM mounting studs . and this wasn’t mentioned anywhere in the instructions! • Be very careful removing your old/installed vent. (Several videos on line . I personally like A1 Auto videos) •When you pop out your existing vent, there are 4 tips you need to reuse. SO NOT SNAP THEM OFF DURING REMOVAL. ^* These 5 tabs will slide into slots on the back of your new vent for installation ** • The slotted vent insert is of equal quality. • I wasn’t expecting this portion to be so visually impressive! • The insert is set back like OEM style. The vent is carbon fiber and it’s flush mounted . This provides a sleeker and more aggressive look to the entire component. OVERALL I’m happy with the finished product. Gave a really nice appearance to my 09’ mini clubman S R55. I would recommend this product to anyone wanting a new fresh look to their hood.

Replaced the original cracked scoop on my 2007 R56 with this. The original wasn’t vented, but this one is. Engine is running much cooler now. Very easy to install and love the look!

The grill you attach did not fit perfectly and is a bit crooked otherwise it looks very good and adds a lot to the look of the car. I didn't notice the crookedness until after the return period expired otherwise I would of sent it back. Being black hides the defect.

This is not any way to be put on a Mini Cooper. This item has melted from the heat of the vehicle. HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THEY COULD SELL THIS ITEM. If you want to save your money - DO NOT BUY this product as it will start melting and caving in from heat. UPDATE 7/29/25: Contacted seller and they shipped out a new scoop right away after sending them pictures. Customer service was great. Fingers crossed 🤞 this one doesn't melt.

It looks good, and it fits good, but the problem is you need to buy the replacement pins, as the old ones break when you remove them and pretty much can't be reused
