We just picked up our '06 S convertible last Friday, I never thought we'd have a better car than our '03 Cooper but this is it! However, over the weekend we were riding on the highway and wouldn't ya know it, I ran right over the carcass of a blown out tire from an 18 wheeler. Fortunately, no discernable damage but it looks like I lost the rear center cover in the bumper and the chrome covers for the exhaust. I've found a cheap source for some OEM chrome tips but I was wondering if anyone has seen any aftermarket tips that look good. Also, instead of replacing the OEM cover for the rear center bumper, I'm looking at using the rear backup light or brake light replacement, but I was wondering if someone makes aftermarket replacement grills for both the rear openings AND the center foglight hole. All the replacements I've seen so far only replace the two sides but not the center.

 

It's an awesome ride, isnt it!

Sorry to hear about your damage. That is really aggravating. I also havent seen a grill for the center hole. I installed the brake light kit in place of the center plastic cover. It was from Myminiparts.com. It looks excellent! And it was incredibly easy. The hardest part was removing the rear bumper, which you'd need to do anyway to insert aftermarket grill inserts.

Good luck!
