No.

The original topic was about the front cabrio braces in the engine compartment that used to cost about $20 each. There's a dedicated thread: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...on-cabrio.html

Item #4 on both sides:

I know. The post topic somehow expanded. Blame it on our friendly moderator.

Anything like this flor R56, or are they just for earlier chassis?

Nope, just a Gen 1 thing for the fronts, the rear underbody braces they had on the R57 and R59.

The only thing that has expanded is the size of the Gen3 MINI compared to the Gen1 MINI.

Just got shipment notification for the pair of front cross braces that I order without the jacked up prices. I ordered mine from Bavauto. BTW, don't waste money buying the $4 apiece M6-16 torx bolts from MINI. It is the same part you can get from VW/Porsche for $.99 just without the precious blue Loctite. You can also try a well stock H/W store.
