Thiner than stock?

Having had the bumpers off on all but a face lifted cooper, I'd say the bumpers are no differant.

The Aero bumpers are all one piece (the plastic is just painted on), where as the standard bumpers are several pieces. But my Cooper's aero kit bumper wasn't have as bad as some of the ones I've seen and I'd done 30+k
