Rear Stainless Steel Grilles

I just received a set of (rear) stainless steel grilles for my '06 MCS. Anyone out there installed these on their MINI? Have any installation tips?

Thanks!

Thanks for the post!

I got mine from Moss Mini. They did not come with any hardware. How do you go about removing the rear fascia . I just don't know where to start.

I will post all installation pics as soon as I get a chance to install them! Just keep an eye out here for them if someone doesn't get it posted before I do.

i have the same grilles installed on mine. The black grilles should just pop out and the new grilles go back in the same spot. Not much to it. They just snap on. I got mine on without taking off the rear bumper though.
