Replacement Bumper needed - Any ideas?!

Hi

I'm in need of a replacement front bumper. A deer decided to end his life by hitting the front of my mini!

Luckily, not too much damage was caused, he basically took out my front right fog light and indicator but we have done a quite impressive bodge job by sticking everything back in and sticking on a plastic cover for the lights!

There is though a big crack in the bumper, and a small hole, so I need to get round to getting a replacement.

Does anyone have any idea where I can get a replacement bumper but not for stupid BMW prices?!

Even in the snow, the roof came down!

Hi

Bumper wise, there are loads on E-Bay of late, most probably from a dealer who has been fitting aero kits.

What model is it? Cooper S, Cooper or ONE? What colour are you after?

These are just a few of the various ones on E-Bay...?

Astro Black: (Early ONE D / ONE / Cooper)

eBay.co.uk: Mini Front Bumper BMW Mini (item 180114882294 end time 12-May-07 19:58:36 BST)

Black Cooper S:

eBay.co.uk: 2000-07 BMW MINI COOPER S FRONT BUMPER BLACK INCL TRIMS (item 220111145386 end time 20-May-07 16:05:41 BST)

Red Cooper S:

eBay.co.uk: 2000-07 BMW MINI COOPER S FRONT BUMPER BLACK INCL TRIMS (item 220111145386 end time 20-May-07 16:05:41 BST)

Blue Cooper S:

eBay.co.uk: 2000-07 BMW MINI COOPER S FRONT BUMPER BLUE INCL. TRIMS (item 220111145418 end time 20-May-07 16:05:44 BST)

Various Colours and Styles: This Guy has loads for sale.... looks like you would need to telephone to discuss the colour required

eBay.co.uk: BMW MINI COOPERS FRONT BUMPERS & COOPER (item 150119669621 end time 15-May-07 19:04:50 BST)

Aero Kit time? Could be a good time to upgrade to the aero kit?

eBay.co.uk: BMW Mini Aero Bumpers Front and Rear (item 260115440582 end time 13-May-07 16:12:21 BST)


Fog light wise I know yout have said that a repair has been done, but for £20 it might be worth getting a new one fitted? There are also quite a few on E-Bay. (see below)

One only....(£18.99)

eBay.co.uk: BMW Mini New Front Fog Light !!! (item 170108507594 end time 13-May-07 20:03:43 BST)

A pair.... (seller says he is looking for £40)

eBay.co.uk: bmw mini front fog lights no reserve (item 280113049481 end time 13-May-07 18:47:52 BST)

Hope this helps a little?

James.

Hi I just had exactly the same happen to me on Fri & struggling to find exactly the same parts. I haven't found anywhere except ebay but they dont have any, the one advertised on there are not complete kits which is what we need. If you find anywhere can we let each other know.

Sorry can pass on any help

Hi
I replied earlier to your thread sating the same had happened to mine

I just been back on to ebay & emailed at the breakers on there & just got all the bits i needed

They have cooper or S bumpers & the 2 lights parts you need just email them with what you need if still needed

I have just got both complete light units for just over £50 del & a cooper S works bumper for under £130

So for the sake of an email you could get what you need for under £200 if you still need

Hope that helps
