I do agree that it looks WRXish, doesnt match the MINI or follow the stock lines (whatever that means) - which are all reasons that I like it. The WRX scoop doesnt look like it should come on a stock WRX either and I like it too. Looks great. What ever happened to that pick of the 02 MINI with the big old chrome blower sticking out of the hood anyway?
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Some people think MINIs are ugly.

Wow, that is one contoversial scoop! I actually like it. Someone said that it looks like a WRX scoop, and I think that that's a good thing. The WRX is one lean, mean air-scoopin' machine!

Wanna bet on that? I'd guess from shutting off the back flow of air that this passes LESS cooling air than the stock set-up...Bling, BLING!!
Not really but I guess you love to jump on any bandwagon.

Maybe it should be gold plated.
I love your STOCK car.

Why is it when someone posts information and or photos of their Mini, someone always feels the need to post negitive comments? Why "attack" someone just because they have something on their car that you don't like. If you don't like it, just say its not for your and move on...or better yet see below.

It will stand out from other MINIs in a lineup, if that's the intent.
