The magic of modifying or 'youafying' a MINI is in the 'you' part. Since the SC badge is not standard, it would be a mod which becomes what you want it to be. I'd say get one you like and tape it down where you want it with clear tape and see if that's what you like. If not, move it until you find the spot then stick it down. You can always remove it if it doesn't suit.

I've seen a few MINI's with supercharged badges on their side scuttles. I thought it was pretty cool, I want to do it but can't find a good deal on non-S side scuttles.

Let me guess, you want to do this because you couldn't afford to buy a car with an actual supercharger on it?

Or because he wants to crow. SC MINIs may be getting harder to find because those with them want to keep them if for no other reason than to enjoy the extra 'smile-on-the-face' SC whine you can't get anywhere else.

Out Motoring sells both the Turbo and Supercharger badges which look nice.

Nice way to welcome a new NAM member. The OP owns a 2006 MCS, which you could've seen if you clicked on his garage icon.
