I need to know if my base model 2008 Mini Cooper hood is compatible with the same year Mini Cooper S ? I recently damaged the front edge of my hood and was thinking about switching to a S hood with the scoop on it for a sportier look. Just need some reassurance that it will fit before I commit to buying one.

 

I can't say for sure - any dealer or good body man could - but the only apparent difference is the scoop.

 

Yes I've had a customer do it that wrecked his car.
