[thermister]

[tegwin]

Deffinately looks better without.... Im not refitting my chrome ones for that reason.... need to paint the filled holes though...

Type bumpers in the search(description)area
He also has some on ebay right now.

I'm sure that John Wadman at TVR North America in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada also stocks new bumpers.
Having said all that, they surely must be available closer to your home.

Yes, I do stock the rubber bumpers and they have stainless steel inserts so they don't rot off the car like the original ones did. I have them made here in the States.
Contact me at [e-mail] if you have questions.

Adrian@ said:

Tosh....the no bumper look makes the cars look cheap, un-finished and waiting for the bumpers to be fitted...IMHO.

I happen to think they do look better with bumpers, it gives the car the finsihed look.

Each to their own though.

Terminator,
If you want me to bring you a set to Woodwork this year, just let me know ahead of time. I'm coming with my car and not my parts trailer to try and enjoy the event as a
'spectator' for the first time in about 23 years but I'll bring parts for folks who let me know in advance.

Look forward to seeing you there.

i like the site steve. I agree the chrome bumpers on any M look the part.

I do like your dunkirk spirit with regards to your LHD to RHD conversion. not many people would chop a dash into 5 bits, re-arrange and weld back together when a RHD is available second hand.

You must be from yorkshire and one of those incomers to Northumberland

It will be going a bit cheaper since it is an unfinished project and missing its bumpers

Adrian@ said:

Neal, I'm sorry but...I KNOW when a car without bumpers goes up for sale..I have prospective buyers ring up and ask for a price of 4 bumpers, so that they can work out what they need to beat the seller down to get the car sorted!
Adrian@

It would always be the chome ones I would go for adrian.

I wonder how easy it would be to make a good set of chrome ones up and then take a cast to make some up in ally to polish, chrome or powder coat??

have you found me a pre73 basket case yet?
