MINI JCW GP 2 Belly Pan

MINI JCW GP 2 Belly Pan
I have this under engine tray but had an off-track excursion and the tray was pretty much pulled out. It was hanging by two of the front quick screw type fasteners. The tray is fine but I lost the majority of the fasteners or they were bent pretty badly when they were yanked out. Can someone lookup the part numbers for just the mounting clips and screws for me? I am going to replace all of them to be on the safe side.
Thanks in advance.

The GP2 belly pan replaces item #5 in this diagram, and re-uses the hardware.

the washer is just a plastic washer that keeps the quarter turn screw from falling off the cover, I'd just look for something at the hardware store that works.

oil drain access hole
I lost mine entirely once and didn't hear a thing. I bought a new one and drilled a 2" hole in it just under the oil drain. Now it won't need to be removed and replaced as often. I'm hoping that will help it last longer.

Thank you Johnna!
What bothers me is that when i bought the new pan and took it to the dealer, they didn't have the hardware, or even seem to know how to attach the new pan??? Lucky for me they are combining with another dealer who might be more competent.
My other concern is that during the last oil change the didn't reattach the pan properly.
I always changed the oil on all of my cars until the last few years. Now i'm too old.

After cutting the hole in the belly pan, I discovered that the hole wasn't big enough to handle the oil splashing that comes from removing the drain plug. At the next oil change, I'll be installing a Fumoto oil drain valve for a smoother drain flow. Next will be reducing spills from removing the filter. Ideas?

We added F-108 to the site now. Thanks

Thats a good idea. I just drop my GP2 pan on my R58 JCW every time i change the oil, not too hard. I like the idea of the fumoto valve, but being its on the very bottom, it might get caught on plastic bags or debris on the road. Wish the drain was on the back side like the gen 1 MINI.
I finally had it installed when I had the oil changed today. The tech was skeptical about the installation at first but was pleased with it in the end. He wished every car had one.
As it turns out, the Fumoto valve ends up being flush with the bottom face of the belly pan so it won’t snag on things like plastic bags. It could, however, be affected by a rock or bump that’s tall enough to deflect the belly pan. Fumoto valve flush with GP2 belly pan.

Thats good info, i thought it would poke.

Not a problem. I still have mine on my R58 JCW. Some info here on testing and design by MINI. Also what people have found.
Aerodynamics, some protection, keeps the bottom engine compartment a little cleaner. Some sound deadening. Looks great.

When I installed mine, I saw a slight bump in fuel economy during extended highway travels. Your Clubman has the aerodynamic kit, with JCW front bumper, so you might see a little bit better improvement from adding the tray.

Yes, it should have those, peak underneath. Every factory JCW (with aero kit) and ordered JCW aero kit has it that i have seen. If they added the body kit afterwards and its not a JCW then it will not have it.

I am not slammed to the ground right now, but i drive my R58 on the daily, i would say the front bumper lip would take the first hit, the GP2 pan sets higher then the pressure lips on the front JCW bumper, so if you scrape, that would go first. Its got to be like 1-2mm higher then the bottom on the JCW front bumper, but much higher then the front wheel pressure lip. If you are worried about slammed life I would get a Rennline Metal skid plate. Great stuff from those guys.
