Will they fit on a normal Mini bumper?

I was planning on getting some but the Minispares website isn't very clear about how they fit...

Cheers

Yes, I have them on mine, dunno if theres different ones though, think there maybe. Mine have rusted really quick though

[yorkshirechris]

Where did you get yours from sazal?

Out of interest can anyone recommend some good stainless steel ones that won't rust?

I put some on the cooper last week.. well... Ed did! lol

The only difficult bit was where the fog lamp sits... was a bit of a struggle to get it round that! lol

We had to move the fog light over just slightly to make room, mine came from minispares last year sometime and are still in good nick

We took the photo before we put the fog light back on !

I don't have a fog light.. or spotlights.. or reverse lights, so no problems there

If you dot mind me asking Rocket how much did you pay for those? They look a tad over priced to me.. over £80?!

I bought the whole lot, bumpers,over riders and corner bars new for about £160 which is a lot but at the time I'd been watching a few sets on ebay but they was always miles away and I was going to minispares anyway

[Globule]

At shows, in the past have seen bumpers with corner bars for about £20 a bumper, if your lucky i guess! I paid £50 for a complete set of corner bars and overriders, was told they are proper rover ones and are like new really! A set of stainless bumpers complete with all the bits went on ebay the other day for £102 i think as well

if you have bought a new cheap front bumper, then original over riders dont always fit 100% well... or at least they didnt on the bumper i got from minispares. look good though! just make sure you line them up correctly to match the cut outs in the front panel

Yep normal bumpmer, just got the have a steady hand when drilling them...

[james962]

i bought mine from MITP for £20 a set off a stand and they are just like blackbelt's

They don't rust if you keep on top of them

[yorkshirechris]

Hmmm.. I'm thinking now if I go with overriders I'll want the extra bar bits on the sides.. and then Mk1 grille.. which will ultimately end up in me buying a new bonnet as the current one has no safety catch (rusted through ) so it'll be an expensive mod!
