I finally got my MiniFini tow hitch installed. Very hidden and looks like a factory option. Also installed my Yakima Holdup bike rack, holds two bikes very easily. Only downside is I must lower the bike rack to access the boot when the rack is installed. Here are two pics so people can see how it looks.

 

Looks great! We need to do the same thing and get the mounts for our car topper.

 

We also have a MiniFini hitch on our base CM for our trailer and it is nearly unnoticeable when not in use, very cool

 

Tatacountry : that looks well installed, clean look. is that a 2in or 1? where did you get it installed? I'm in northeast jersey......

looks great. you must do a lot of riding to have racks on top and the hitch. i ride my mountain bike almost every weekend and would love to still ride on the track but haven't been to the velodrome in a while.

i actually like the whole look of your countryman. i just installed the red caps and air ducts today on my absolute black

 

It's 1 and a quarter inch. I had it installed at Lion Collision in Warminster PA, very reasonably priced and the guy there is a Mini expert/fan (but i think they are closing soon or closed already due to lease problems, so get there while you can!).

 

Thanks! I hate lifting the heavier mountain and cruising bikes onto the roof, so the rear rack makes it easy. The light road bikes go on the roof. I figure 4 people in the CM, so I should be able to haul 4 bikes
