If you are installing a oil cooler into your non-"S" Mini nose then you will note that the cooler interferes with the vertical brace used to support the center cross member of the nose panel. You have several options, you could remove the brace and hope not to bend the cross member, you could relocate the cross member, you could squeeze the cooler behind the brace OR you could simply purchase this reproduction of the original 'diagonal' brace as used in all the "S" models.
