I'm 19 and just bought my first car. It's a 2006 Cooper S Royal Grey Metallic with 28,000 miles.



My first purchase for it is going to be this chrome scoop: https://www.outmotoring.com/mini-coo...net-scoop.html

Does anyone have any experience with this scoop? I would leave it stock but someone has tried to steal the current scoop sometime in the past and it has a crack from it. Figured the chrome scoop will go good with the chrome package already installed.


Wow, this post is a bit to long

 

Beautiful car! Good luck!

 

Good purchase

I'd sleep on the chrome scoop. Alot people get over all the chrome real quick and end up blacking it all out. I know I changed my mind on the chrome after a few weeks with the car.

 

im not into chrome, but if that is what you like then go for it.

lots of members black out chrome or go CF. just a matter of personal preference. enjoy the car and watch out for the mod bug...once you start you will be hooked!

 

Where can I find pictures of a RGM with a black scoop and one with a chrome scoop?

 

I don't know anything about the scoops - but wanted to say congratulations!!! Great looking car. Happy motoring!

 

Welcome to the forum, scoops are not in my area of expertise, go with what ever you like!

 

Love your car! Congrats!

 

Welcome, Nice looking car.

 

 

Welcome to the obsession from MAD-Town, WI. Since I don't get much actual MINI wave action here on the roads, I'm giving you a virtual MINI e-wave, keep on motoring!

 

Thanks for all the replies of welcome!

 

Welcome to the Family! Love the Royal Grey!

 

Sharp color, of course!

Heh, I'll second that -- I see two or three regular MINI commuters on my way to work every morning. I think I've gotten one of them to wave 50% of the time...

 

The mini has a name now. That means I'm takin it to far! Gustaf the Grey.

 

I think that name is perfect!
