Yep, seen those on other cars, first time for MINI. On Rover they are for off road so the frame does not create vibration. Some people remove them and they weigh about 50 pounds each on a rover
#6 does the same thing on the end near the wheel.
People on the BMW side complain about noises and its reduces noise by the tone or HZ

So removed you might get noises.
