Does anyone know where I can buy this bumper?

Just had my rear aero bumper damaged and want to replace it with the one in the pic. Any ideas where I can buy this in the USA?

Thanks!

You will need a dual tip exhaust for that?

It appears to be steel or plastic mesh. I assume you could easily cut it to your specific needs, or specify what style of opening you would prefer upon ordering.

Why would you want a Mini to look like a VW?

It doesn't remind me of a Vdub at all....but,

The front does remind me very much of a GTR....at least as much of a GTR as you could make out of a MINI

Yah if anything, that front grille setup is more reminiscent of GTR's or Evo's. The VW/Audi grille setup is less aggressive and is wider at the top and tapers inwards towards the bottom.

Here's another option, if I decide against the price point on the Lumma. Replace the aero and I have a copy of the Arquay rear diffuser, pictured here on a standard rear........thoughts?

That SRS kit is pretty nice. I think it is reminiscent of either an EVO or maybe an Audi. I'd mod the back with the M7 diffuser. Still the cost is a bit much, and I'd miss my carbon fiber scoop.

I like the Rear trim part there, but I'm considering building one out of aluminum... If it turns out well I'll share. If not, well... it'll be a secret.

The CF difusser, was the last one at a local Japanese wholesaler that went out of business. It was half the cost of the original Arquay one, which is about $650 plus shipping. I paid $375 total

That Lumma front bumper is pure sex. Like hooking up with a hot girl and her hotter friend and then they pay for breakfast and let you keep the video, sex.

Wow... I don't know which is more disturbing... That you used that analogy to describe a car part, OR that you know exactly what my typical Wednesday night is like

It is a nice kit tho. Not my favorite but up there.
