R56 style rear bumper for a Clubman

As the title states wondering if anyone knows of any company making an R56 style center exhaust cutout rear bumper that will fit the 08-14 clubman? I love my clubman but was always more into the center mounted exhaust of the R56 cars. Any help appreciated.

There is a spare tire wheel well the Clubman has that the R56 does not that might need "adjusting" to make center exhaust work. Would love to see finished pics!

Crud newbie here I didn't realize that the R56 had the spare in a different location. Although my Mini Clubman came to me without the spare wheel anyway, but thats a lot of fabrication just to get the rear R56 look. Well for me anyway as I'm not a welding expert.

I guess in that case, all you need to do is repipe the tail pipe. R56 exhaust pipe is short anyway. Also, maybe you could just swap the bottom plastic piece of the bumper and fit it to the clubman!

personally, I prefer the opposite. R55 style on an R56
