I don't like the look of my car with bumpers on it. I want them gone, but I don't want to send the car back to the panel shop again to have it deseamed in those spots.

Aside from a body kit, are there any other options I have to disguise the lip for mounting the bumper?

Thanks.

There was a thread on this not long ago

my only suggestion would be to put some of that black plastic seam cover along the rear edge. You could paint it body colour as well off the car.

Done right, you wouldn't notice the bumper seams.

Can you get a RWC in Vic in a mini that has had the bumpers removed? Yes, I know they don't do anything but was just wondering. Thanks.

You can as long as there's no exposed edges.

If you de-seam and do not want bumbers then the only neat way is to remove the bumper mount and make it smooth

What I meant is that I just saw some black bumpers recently in my Minisport catalogue that might be an alternative to OP's needs, not to say that there are no black bumpers in the whole of the southern hemisphere


And as much as I love John, he didn't have 1.3 roller tip rockers so he's not the answer to all mini parts needs /end rant

John would be the first to say that his business is NOT the begining and end of Mini Parts, however, why not buy a parts locally and support our local suppliers so that we still have them in the years ahead? Besides, John looks after everyone, that is of course unless you piss him off.

end 'rant'.
