Grand Prix Body & Styling
MINI Cooper Grand Prix
The Grand Prix Body & Styling category shapes the way the Mini Cooper Grand Prix is seen from the outside. Mini Sport presents Cooper Grand Prix exterior components developed in collaboration with Mini Sport, covering the bodyshell, wheels, fuel caps, twin tank conversion, exhaust presentation and other visual details that give the car its recognisable character.
This is not simply cosmetic change. The focus is heritage-led design, careful proportion and exterior detail that supports the mechanical purpose of the Grand Prix programme while respecting the Classic Mini’s original form.

Design With Purpose
Grand Prix styling follows the same discipline as the rest of the car: restraint, proportion and function. Instead of changing the Mini’s familiar silhouette, the exterior range refines the areas that define stance, presence and finish.
Each visible element has a role, from the Rose Petal wheel packages and fuel fillers to the twin upswept exhaust and body details. Together, they help create a car that feels period-influenced, purposeful and unmistakably linked to the Cooper Grand Prix story.
