I've been looking for a new scoop, mine's getting a little droopy in the middle. I've seen a few on Amazon that are being advertised as fitting Mini's 02-08. Can this be right?

has anybody tried to fit an R53 scoop on an R56, or know if it will fit? Thanks

 

This is correct only if the 07-08 is a convertible. The convertible used the same body as the 02-06 all the way to 2008. Then the body changed in 2007 for the hardtops.
No chance without major mods. Just find the correct one for you MINI. Ebay has lots of take offs as people change them for others like carbon fiber.

 

What color are you looking for.

 

Either black or brg. If the price is right,and the scoop is good condition, I'd prolly just get any color and plasti dip it black. Are you selling one?

 

R56 Scoop here from 2007+ Cooper S and JCW

Other then Carbon Fiber and chrome.
There is the primed version ready to paint. Comes with new install hardware also.

If you don't have it already some people have installed. The thermal insulation.

Over-top with the sound insulation , which is sometimes missing.

Just like they said above it would have to be modified for the R53 to R56.

Thanks and hope that helps.
