Any Photos of F56's with front bumpers painted body color (NON black cars)
Looking at all of the F56's i can find... cant find a red, PW, Silver etc F56 with the front bumper painted the same as body color..
Besides Black cars.
Im referring to the part that is in the middle of the front grille.

Here’s a Volcanic Orange one I found online. Doesn’t help that it has a front plate, but the color is still obvious.

I like it.... I'd probably like it even better if the lower surround (around the front "bumper" inside the grille surround).... were painted body color also.
If anyone has more....Please post em up !

Yeah with the most recent facelift they come body color. I remember not too long after the F56 came out, Sewell MINI was selling painted replacement pieces for a fairly low price. It looks so much better than the black, but Sewell stopped selling them after a year or so.

I don't understand that picture. It has a yellow S, which should mean it's an SE, but the SE doesn't come with those brake ducts. Is it an S or an SE?

It's an S, but I changed out the red "S" for yellow ones to match my color scheme. I realized afterward that the Electric uses yellow ones too.
