Stainless Steel Bumper Set - Mk2 - Front & Rear - Standard Kit - RS1626
Upgrade your classic Mk2 with our premium stainless steel bumper set, designed as a replica of the original factory chrome bumpers. Manufactured from very high-grade 304 (1.4301) stainless steel and polished to a deep mirror finish. These bumpers look just like chrome but come with unbeatable long-term advantages.
Why choose stainless steel bumpers over chrome bumpers?
Lifetime durability – Our bumpers include a lifetime anti-corrosion warranty. Unlike chrome, stainless steel will never rust, chip, or peel.
Authentic appearance – Each bumper is hand-finished and mirror-polished, delivering a shine almost indistinguishable from chrome.
Exact fit & quality guaranteed – Made using low-volume press tools, our bumpers are precision-engineered replicas of the originals. Minor adjustments may be required during fitting, but we guarantee correct fit, quality, and shine.
Eco-friendly choice – Stainless steel production avoids the environmentally harmful chrome plating process.
Repairable & sustainable – Small scratches or dents can be repaired and re-polished, extending the life of your bumper set.
Included in the Mk2 bumper kit:
- Front and rear bumpers with overriders (& rubbers where required)
- Basic assembly hardware
- Rear surfaces acid-etch primed and painted, just like the originals, to maintain authentic appearance
With this stainless steel bumper set from Rimmer Bros, you get the timeless look of a chrome bumper but with modern engineering, lifetime durability, and unmatched value.
Frequently Asked Questions
