Purpose and Fitment for Mini Cooper S

The presented rear bumper has been specifically designed for the facelifted (LCI) Mini R56 and R57 models in the Cooper S version, taking into account the factory PDC system. This means the design includes appropriate cutouts for parking sensors, facilitating their correct installation and maintaining the functionality of the parking assist system.

Its placement on the vehicle is the rear, making this part responsible for protecting the rear bodywork and maintaining the car's stylistic lines. Using an original bumper from the same model series ensures visual and technical consistency with other body components.

Kite Blue Metallic B48 Color and Finish

The bumper is finished in Kite Blue Metallic - B48, a color characteristic of selected Mini configurations. The metallic paint finish provides a modern look and pairs well with the chrome and black exterior accents typical of the Cooper S versions.

For owners of vehicles with the same paint shade, using a bumper in the identical color can significantly reduce the scope of painting work. In many cases, only fitting and polishing may be necessary, shortening repair time and making it easier to restore a cohesive look to the rear of the car.

Technical Characteristics and Installation

This part belongs to the Bumpers and Reinforcements group, meaning its construction is adapted to work with the factory mounting points and body reinforcements of the Mini. The bumper is intended for installation on the rear of the vehicle, maintaining the original geometry and body lines.

The product has a specified weight, which is important when selecting mounting components and during transport and workshop handling. Thanks to its original origin, the fitment to the body is predictable, and the installation process proceeds in an orderly manner, without the need for structural modifications.

Condition, Origin, and Service Application

The bumper is a used part, making it an attractive option for users seeking a compromise between quality and repair cost. Its original origin ensures dimensional accuracy with the Mini body and compatibility with factory brackets, supports, and hardware.

This solution is particularly suitable for accident repairs, correcting parking damage, and restoring the vehicle to a near-factory condition after body part replacement. Using an original rear bumper also facilitates a later resale of the car, as the structural and visual consistency of the vehicle's rear is maintained.

Why Choose This Mini Rear Bumper

Choosing this rear bumper model is a good solution for owners of Mini R56 and R57 LCI Cooper S who expect:

• original geometry perfectly matched to the Mini body,
• provision for the PDC system on the rear of the vehicle,
• color consistency with Kite Blue Metallic B48 paint,
• the possibility of a technically correct repair within the Bumpers and Reinforcements category.

With this bumper, it is possible to restore the full functionality and aesthetics of the rear bodywork without the need for aftermarket alternatives with uncertain fitment.
