The parted out picture looks like it may be for a Clubman or Countryman but it's the Putco kit.

I have to say, this is the weirdest thread I've participated in all year.

Each kit that has been posted in this thread is the same kit, just sold from different places. If you like the rear bumper in the first post, any of those places will get you that kit.

The rear valences (the part that goes around the exhaust) are different because they make the same bumper for the R56 and R55 but swap out the valences depending on the exhaust setup. They're the same bumper from the same Putco body kit, just different valences for a Clubman S or Cooper S exhaust.
