Cooper S front bumper on a Cooper?

Anyone done this on the site?

I noticed a couple of examples on Mini modification websites..they certainly look a lot bettter in my opinion.

Is there a cheaper way of getting them rather than BMW? Anyone know the cost?

Thanks,

-Rob

Yep, it's becoming quite a 'fashionable' mod amongst the Cooper owners

Got one myself, got it on ebay - probably the best place to get one cheapish.

Fitting is simple, if you have front foglights you need to move them into a different position, there are holes marked already for this, you just need to screw through them.

So if I were to pay £250 for a MCS front and rear bumper in my body colour would that be too much if you got yours for £15 LOL They seem to be going for about £70 each on ebay but the set I was going to buy does have the stainless steel mesh on it too.

The stainless mesh is quite expensive, if the set you buy is in perfect condition then it's obviously worth more.

The one I got for £15 has a couple of scratches but no more than the front of my car has anyway
