Average Price for Hood Scoop?

My noticed that my hood scoop is starting to crack in the middle and peel off, so I started to look for a replacement online. I noticed that the prices range from $50 up to $350. So I was wondering if anybody could tell me where to get it at a decent price/quality (and if possible in black).
Note: Mine has the honeycomb grill, which I've been told it's re-usable.

Thanks in advance.

Yea, pop out the grille and you can reuse it.

Some scoop options: Primed, chrome , to JCW Carbon fiber.

Did you get the heat shield and insulation combo, when you change out your scoop that helps extend the life on the primed ones, chrome ones seem to hold up longer the the carbon fiber one holds against the heat the best, but the biggest change o help warping from heat is the insulation and heat shield.

I wish I noticed this before I ordered some stuff from you last week so I would have saved money on shipping.

Definitely a nice and cost effective choice. I just purchased this one http://pages.ebay.com/motors/link/?n...503184&alt=web. It shipped in less than one week. Total cost was $110 plus another $11 for the hardware (purchased at my local Mini dealership). I installed it last night and absolutely love it.
