The presented hinge is dedicated to Mini models from the R50, R52, and R53 series, ensuring the factory bonnet mounting geometry and correct pivot axis. Its placement on the right side of the vehicle guarantees compatibility with the original body layout, eliminating the need for modifications or adaptations of other parts.

Thanks to its original design, the hinge works with the factory mounting points of the bonnet and body, facilitating gap alignment, proper closing, and stable bonnet movement during opening and closing.

Cosmosschwarz Metallic Color – Benefits for Body Repairs

The part is finished in the Cosmosschwarz Metallic - 303 shade, commonly found on Minis of this generation. For many bodywork and paint jobs, this means the hinge can be installed without the need for additional painting, especially if it's in a less visible area when the bonnet is closed.

Choosing a hinge in the correct color also helps maintain visual consistency of the engine bay and reduces the time required for part matching during accident repairs or restorations.

Technical and Functional Characteristics

The bonnet hinge is responsible for stable guidance and support of the bonnet during daily vehicle operation. The design intended for the right side ensures:

• maintenance of the correct bonnet position relative to the fenders and bumper,
• precise adjustment of the bonnet position within factory tolerances.

As a part from the Bonnet/Hoods category, the hinge contributes to the system responsible for the safety and rigidity of the front body section, and its proper functioning is important for both ease of use and protection of the components in the engine bay.

Condition, Origin, and Service Application

The product is from the Mini line and is a used part, making it an attractive solution for economical repairs, post-accident service, and restoring older models to working order. Using an original hinge allows for compliance with the vehicle's factory parameters, which is particularly important for precise bonnet alignment and eliminating closing issues.

The hinge is suitable for both professional body and paint shops, as well as for users who perform their own Mini maintenance and expect parts that are structurally matched to a specific body generation.
