JCW Hitch on a 07+ JCW rear bumper?
Hitch on a 07+ JCW rear bumper?
What's up guys?
I just upgraded my 07 Cooper S to the JCW aero kit this past weekend. I need to install a hitch (hitch only, electrical wiring is not needed as it is only for a bike rack). I noticed there is a detail DIY in the How to section for the Cooper S; however, I wonder if that same can be applied for the JCW rear bumper?
Do any of you JCW drivers have installed a hitch and dont mind sharing ideas or links to what hitch to get or what mods to do?
Thank you,

The JCW body kit is just a bumper cover, so the MINI Domore and similar hitches will still fit, it's just that the hole you have to cut in the bumper cover for pass thru will be different. I think I saw a picture of one with the JCW bumper and the slot was cut in the "grill" section above the diffuser, very unobtrusive.
Yeah I noticed in the How To section tehre's a DIY on how to install the hitch on a 09 Cooper S. I see the hole is on the grill yet keeping in mind that the rear grill on the JCW is slimmer than the S, I dont know where the cutout hole will fall. The grill or the actual bumper... that's why i was hoping to get a few suggestions or pictures from other JCW... I Wouldnt get it unless the hole would be on the grill :/
