In this video, you will see how to change the rear bumper on a Mini R50. As our friendly YouTuber says, don't believe those who tell you that you only need to remove four screws and the job is done: there are indeed four screws, but not just those, and you will get your hands quite dirty and possibly break a few nails.

In short, it’s quite a task.

If you need the bumper for your Mini, you can find it on the tarostrade.it website with the code 68-0507-N-31687 for £80.53 (to be painted in your colour) plus £16.50 for shipping. In the end, it adds up. Once you have your new bumper, it really is just a matter of tightening those famous four screws.

Replacing it is much easier.
