Thats a dealer only piece ... I think you might need the entire ring around the headlight

I'd get the Aerocatch ones ... No mini specific , and count on LOADS of mods to get them in

i have seen those before. i dont want those kind of hood pins. i want the normal chrome looking ones. where would i mount the stud through the hood? the only guess i have is where the aerocatch ones would go?

I'm assuming this is for the carbon fiber hood ...
I've installed several without pinsand not had any troubles due to the latching and size shape

The BEST one I saw used are a set of Dzuz fasteners in the front corners the guy made a right angle to fit from the front bumper to the side

Standard hood pins are only 5/6" long and no where near long enough to reach from the radiator mount UP through the hood,,, You'll have to make extensions like around 12" long to reach
