Rear Bumper Types?

Postby paza1 » Sun 07.01.2007, 02:23

Just curious, the Manual lists one part no. for UK and one for USA. I have seen 2 types now. The one below and most others i.e. without the middle section, both UK and USA.

I feel sure this has been mentioned before but no luck with a search
Anyone know about this?
Cheers

This rear bumper is off a KIA Elan, I think.

Gary, I think you are correct.

I wonder if there is a list of changes/improvements, like the S2 v SE

There was a guy at Stoneleigh the year before last with a BRG Elan (either SE or N/A) who had a bumper like this.

I'd never seen one before. They seem to be pretty rare.
Striking fear into the hearts of duplicate posts everywhere...! :P
