My My Mini got hit on its butt. It wasn't at a high speed and it looks like just the bumper cover, reverse light/rear fog Light housing and trim, and the bottom plastic trim was damaged. Bumper support might be, but I'm waiting for the woman's insurance to come see the car so I can bring it to a shop to be seriously looked at.

I want to make the best of a crappy situation so I'm thinking about changing the rear bumper. Right now I just have a plain ol' S bumper, but I'm thinking maybe a JCW rear or maybe something aftermarket.

Anyone have some experience with aftermarket bumper covers? I was looking at the duraflex ( http://www.bodykits.com/Extreme-Dime...108449/872613/) but I'm not sure about quality and I know it's fiberglass and prone to cracking.

I also really like the jcw rear with the gp diffuser. I just bought a CF front diffuser that'll dress up my front bumper.

 

Ouch ! Glad your ok !!


This one does look great.....no experience with FG panels other than the A panels which were a PITA to fit/get flush with adjacent panels. Holes were not perfectly lined up, took some fudging but they were probably made 10 yrs ago...


The Duraflex is a composite so should be a better fit and stronger too.
