Xotic Tech 3D Front Bumper Grill Emblem Badge w/Holder UK Flag Compatible with Mini Cooper R50 R55 R56 R57 R58 F54 F55 F56 F57 F60 R60 R61 Clubman Hatchback Countryman (Black + Gray)

This is a good quality item, not just a cheap sticker. The key was to get my son-in-law to install it because you have to detach the grill and lean it out to put the base on. The inside of my grill is not accessible by just opening the hood. Fortunately, he even had a special tool for detaching the grill. I probably would have broken the attachment by using a screwdriver or something, so be careful. You can put the base on any way you please because the decorative part then sticks on so you can get it square with the bumper. The adhesive is pretty sticky, so make sure you have it square before you stick it down.

In person, the grayed out Union Jack is a slightly bronzed silver instead of the pictured gray. The weight of the badge does feel significant and quality. I wish the nuts that they supplied were nylon nuts so that they wouldn’t loosen over time but you can just add them yourself. I’d say the holder is worth it but the sticker that goes on the holder is just okay.

Installed on my 2012 Mini Countryman in a matter of minutes and looks great. Been on for a month in every possible weather condition and adhesive is still stuck on and looks great

Managed to secure with just one of the bolts. One got lost.

I fooled around with this for about 45 minutes trying to get the backing plates to hold the badge. It only can be installed where you can get to the inside of the grill, e.g., left or right side. Space is limited. Then trying to tighten down the nuts is frustrating because there's no space to grab screws and put a wrench on nuts. So I re-engineered it and but a solid piece between where screws come through grill rather than use the small retaining braces. Finally I got some leverage to tighten it down. If you're clever you can figure out a better way to attach it yourself like I did. The badge is made cheaply but who cares. It looks good for now. Time will tell if it rusts out or falls off. Either way, no big deal. Recommend it for do-it-yourself types.

Quality Mini Grille Badge. Quick shipping!5 starsI am

Absolute junk. Promptly sent back. This is supposed to bolt in place then the sticker covers the screws so if and when they come lose no way to tighten. Did not fit in grill opening. Very poor quality.

If you are looking for one of those make sure you have a good mechanic to remove the grill of your car in order to install this.
