Information taken from M7's website -
The R56 generation of MINIs brought out a great deal of changes from the R53. One thing that unfortunately remained the same was the use of plastic grilles on the front end of the vehicle. Lame? Yea, we thought so, too.
M7 now brings the same quality and finish of our Ultimate Grilles to the R56. Give your MINI the look it should have had from the factory! As with the previous design of Ultimate Grilles, this new low restriction design for the R56 (and sister vehicles) offers increased airflow to the engine bay while giving your MINI a more aggressive sports car look. Held in place with extremely durable stainless steel fasteners, the Ultimate Grilles require no zip ties or similar short-lived devices for attachment to the car.
Please Note - For the best look, cutting of stock grilles and painting of some surfaces is necessary. These processes are optional and the grilles will install without any problems if you choose not to undertake in cutting or painting.
This ordering page is for the Lower Grille stock bumper equipped cars only.
This Grille DOES NOT fit the Factory Aero/Hypersport Body Kit!
