How much?!?!?

[RedSparrow]

I recently sent an email to Rimmer bros as I am after a rear bumper for the Metro.Here is the reply:

Hello SirWe can supply rear bumpers to order in primer price £124.88 + carriage + vat.Regards Keith.

Are they having a laugh?!Any ideas where I can get one for a reasonable amount?PS - Don't suppose anyone has one lying around, Mk1 in black with brakelight holes?

[M'coli]

Should be the same as mk1 basemodel front ones as they have the indicators in the bumper.

[RedSparrow]

Really? Thats good news as there are a couple of them on ebay!Many thanks!

I know it's not exactly cheap but the fact you can get them at all is pretty good. If I could go down to Renault and get a back bumper for my R4 van I'd be well happy, even at £150.

£20 or I'm reading this wrong ;http://www.beeversautopanels.co.uk/

If anyone is planning on using (or has used) that Beevers place let me know if they're any good, they have some bits I fancy quite cheap.

I have a number of 'used beevers' i'm looking to get shut of, PM me for details

i have heard that Beavers are quite good, if they have what you want. They have a nasty habit of still listing stuff they don't stock any longer, or do for the transit.

Does 'Mk1 1980-84 rear metal grey' mean a bumper?

Yeah I remember seeing that. Problem is that whenever I try and paint anything it all goes horribly wrong!

I can now highly recommend them. Mega quick delivery and a fraction of the price (literally 1/4) of Rimmer bros!

I big up the Beevers too. Got a new petrol tank for the Panda 45 from them. A thumbs up from me

I used Rimmers for an MGF part, I was equally horrified.
