Give me about 4-5 weeks and we will have a bar to mount 4 across the front....in front of the upper grill.

I would think enough air would get in there though, right

With the intercooler, more is allways better.

What if you're not an "S" owner? Would it still matter?

I need to take some measurements off a Cooper to see if the S brackets could work and I assume they will...

I believe the plastic areas of the bumper near the bumper support and the distance from the bottom edge of lower grill opening to the edge of the bumper is the same ....if it is the same on the Cooper S then the brackets will fit just fine...I just have not not had a chance to measure.

No holes anywhere except the grill.....each bracket can be mounted nearly anywhere along the bumper support plate and will be sold in sets of two. No pricing details yet though...

Yup, lemme know when this is available, Chiky. I'll be picking these up as my first aftermarket part, aside from wheels and a radar detector.
