Welcome to NAM and glad to hear your MINI is coming soon.

1. M7 grilles are aggresive and darkened out while (b) is more classic MINI and heavy on chrome.
2. Front lip only if any- probably scrape and bang against curbs and parking blocks.
3. If you get M7 grilles up front then M7 rear grilles make more sense. I don't care for Stainless steel.

If you have manual transmission I'd suggest a Whalen shift knob- maybe with a custom engraving. Maybe a short shift kit.

If you have runflats then switch to non runflat tires when you get a chance.

Black should be OK- usually owners will change all of the front and bumper grills at the same time so that they all match up. You can see through the grill if that's ok with you. That means more debris and bugs get caught in your radiator.:razz::lol:

For the Whalen-

There are many posts and many owners have custom engravings.:nod:
