08 Clubman

I have an 08 Clubman and bought a couple of grill badges. I briefly tried to install them but there is not a simple access point to my grill. Am I missing something? Do I have to remove something to access the grill?

I will gladly accept any and all input.

Thanks

I wasn't charged shipping either. I thought it would update through Amazon when it was ready to ship, but my CC was charged today and there wasn't a shipping charge.

Has anyone ever used the license plate badges? Or ordered anything from gominigo? I think that is the one that I am going to go with. I like the idea of being able to have two shown at once.

Some vendors do not charge shipping, which one did you purchase from?

GoMiniGo, is a great vendor plus they ship fast. I have not however used their license plate badge holders.

Nimcosi -- I ordered badges from Outmotoring. Check out goes through Amazon and I wasn't charged for shipping. I don't know if it was a fluke or for real.

Thanks for your input on GoMiniGo. I'm new to this whole "let's buy everything we can for the car" Seems to be quite an obsession with a Mini that I don't even have!

I also ordered from OutMotoring last night and was not charged shipping. BUT, i also noticed (after the fact) that it says in the description of the badge holders that there is no charge for shipping. So, it's correct
Free Shipping, woohoo!

There are a few more steps to putting a grille badge holder on an 08, but none are too difficult. I had already started writing down the steps when I remembered....http://www.robrobinette.com/MiniGrill.htm You should find his 'how to' very helpful!

You mean 08 Clubman and MC? What about MCS?? My holders should be here in a day or two.

Nifty tutorial (and a honey of a MINI, too)! My thanks to Rob and Kellen.

Got my first badge today from Designs for Motoring. It was packed safely, included a handwritten thank you note and the badge is perfect. I can't wait to order from them again!

Oops! Sorry about that. You can also check out http://www.motoringbadges.com/ if you haven't already. There are a few more sites out there somewhere...ah, http://www.cooperflags.com/motorbadges.cfm

That's the holder--I don't think OutMotoring has any badges of their own for sale.

Outmotoring has a few, but tied to the companies they deal with [self-admittedly].

Arent they the same?

Thanks in advance!

Wouldnt the 07 and 08 be the same? The are both the r56 build, are they not?

I just got my boot badge holder. AWESOME!!!

The delivery was fast. The install was super easy and the product is really high quality. It even fits my regular club badge.

Great service from Cooperflags as well.
