I'm looking for OEM Chrome Side Vent Grills for an '03 Cooper. I've found plenty of Cooper "S" vents, but prefer not to have a case of the red "S". The plain chrome vents I've seen so far have the bumpy "satin" finish (looks like they chromed over the original black parts). Does anyone know where I can get some polished up, shiny, smooth chromed SIDE VENT GRILLS? Thanks!

 

The only ones I've seen are like you've described. I've got a set from Moss MINI. they look good but they would look much better super smooth. In short to your question, no I don't think anyone is providing ones other than the chromed over OEM ones.

 

Check out these side vent grills. They have a little different look to them. I don't know what the quality is like, but I think they could look great!
