Are you referring to the JCW grill? If so, it's available through Outmotoring

What I was looking for was the insert. I really did not want to have to change the grill surround. I went to my local Mini dealer and we tried on a cooper S grill and everything lines up but the chrome plastic does not fit. We then tried on a JCW grill and it seems too big. I have been looking for the Black Grill for a while and we can't seem to find the one that works.

" This grill will NOT fit the Cooper (base model) 2011 and newer. Sorry. The Cooper S version of the grill WILL work on the 2011, however the new 2011 standard grill is pretty cool anyways!!"

Figured it out... JCW Black Grill and lower chrome molding and a Dremel.



Worked like a charm.
