Spoiler

I'm wanting to install an aftermarket aluminum spoiler. I've come to the conclusion that I'm going to have to mount it to the roof rather than the hatch. However, that poses a problem when the hatch is open the stock MCS spoiler would hit it causing the hatch to not open completely. My question is, does anyone know where I could find the rear trim piece ( which I have no clue what its called), that would delete the MCS spoiler? Preferably not from the dealer as I don't want to pay that much for it. Or any other suggestions are welcome.

Take a look at a non S MINI and see if that's what you're looking for. It's a very conservative spoiler that might suit your needs. You can can probably swap your oem S spoiler for a justa spoiler with someone here on the forum.

I have a non-s spoiler in lightning blue that you can easily paint black. PM me if you are interested.

You can also try Real OEM. Not all Justas come with a spoiler (it's an option), so there WOULD be a flat panel that would go in place of the spoiler.

That little panel (or spoiler) at the top of the justa hatch costs over $300 (primed) as an oem part. I'd look for a used part or a trade first.
