"Real Hood Scoop" Decal

I saw a R53 MCS with a decal on the lower part of the hood scoop that said
Real Hood Scoop. Does anyone know who sells these? I hope this does not lead to a R53 v. R56 civil war.

Just curious... if you put a decal on your hood scoop which is plastic...how easy is it to remove w/out damaging the finish at a future date?

Larry...

That has got to be one of the funniest things I've seen posted on NAM. And yes, it IS going to start a civil war! What an incredibly brutal joke!

Ram air in-take..... (I know not much help for a boosted engine, but its more colder air you can get in there)

or dual ICs but thats probably too much boost loss....

Maybe you should get those printed out as a "mirror image" so the pending R56 owners will be able to read it in their rear view mirrors.

Joking of course...but as a future mini owner I had to proactively defend myself

I guess R56 owners could get a sticker that says: "Lose 22 lbs, fatty"

Then we can get one that says: "Not built for the masses," or "The REAL fake MINI".

Wow this could get fun. That said, I can't wait for the civil war.
