    Notice there is a huge MINI Countryman badge fitted on the trunk mat. Isn’t it is beautiful? It is unnecessary to buy a new Countryman badge since you are doing this for your trunk. There are many used MINI Countryman badge on sale at a cheap price on eBay.

    Why not convert your rear seat to something like this if you don’t use your back seat at most of the time? It makes your car lighter in terms of weight and gives you more space for luggage and baggage. This kind of conversion is simply brilliant and very practical for MINI Cooper owners who often travel few thousand miles during holidays.
