Check out the interior and exterior mods section. There is an ongoing thread about this. The bumper covers of the Cooper can be installed on the Cooper S.

There are pictures of and EB/W with the Cooper looks.

Looks nice but as a side note you do loose the bigger front air inlet and air dam of the stock S.

That is not entirely true. The air inlet is the same height and length, but the lower chin spoiler is not as deep. I have not seen any difference in Engine Temperature running the cooper bumpers.
