Great little eBay score today - just got one and a half sets of NOS Mini nudge bars for £20 (2 rear's and one front)
I guess some of you youngsters won't remember but these were all the rage in the '80's - I had them on several Mini's back then.



These are new old stock and have never been fitted but have picked up a few marks in storage over the years. I'll probably get them powder coated - can anyone recommend a powder coater near Woking?

Came with original instructions - made by T T Lyle, Mitcham, Surrey. Quick Google search suggests they are no longer there.

Here they are fitted - I know not everyone likes them but I think they look quite cool

You could have my NOS silver set for a lot less than that!
I'm only using the black one on the rear of my red Mini, changed my mind about putting the full set on my other Cooper

I remember seeing a photo on here last year of photos from France, near enough every mini there had them on. They do look pretty cool, although they'd only look good on certain minis.

Does the boot open as normal with them on? And how is the top fixing attached, the one above the rubber sucker?

£20 seems like a bargain for them anyway.
