[@markwhelan1414]

[@TorqueAutomotive]

Hi Mark, thanks so much for the positive and very kind words 🙌🏻🙌🏻 glad you were able to do It and sounds like it’s turned out great!! Hope you keep enjoying the content on the channel 👍🏻

[@beckygarbutt1745]

Thank you so much for uploading this video!! I wouldn’t have had a clue today without it! Popping the clips was terrifying but well worth it to change the faded black😍🙌

[@TorqueAutomotive]

Hi Becky!! Thanks so much, glad you are happy with the result!!

How much is the 2010mini cooper s front bumper and replacement

[@ARAF64]

Just about to attempt the same job. Thanks for the video.

[@ARAF64]

90 minutes. Job done. Thanks for your video, without it I might have been struggling to take my own short cuts which couldn't be taken.

[@TorqueAutomotive]

No worries, thanks so much for watching and the positive comments!! Glad you got it sorted 🙌🏻

[@amitjain14]

Thanks for the video, were there any sensors attached to the back of the bumper? I have heard that there are temperature sensor and pedestrian detector safety sensor that are located somewhere behind the bumper and to be careful with them as can cause a dashboard light if damaged.

[@HollieMorris]

I'm looking to do this next so thanks for the video!

[@TorqueAutomotive]

Thanks Hollie, good luck!! If you need any help, give me a shout on instagram and i will help if i can!

Question, please. I want to remove the chrome surround and clip in a black one, as I don't intend to reuse the chrome one can I just break the clips whilst removing the trim without removing the bumper, and then clip in the new surround trim? Thanks!

[@darrenm7251]

Would I get away leaving my number plate plinth with 2 small holes in? Holes were from previous owners drilling in number plates. Recently bought short plates but they don't cover over the 2 number plate fixing holes. Won't cause any issues will it?

[@Boasandpythons]

Hey man, quick question. I can't find a video on how to replace the serpentine belt on the B48 mini! Do I need to remove the bumper to gain access to the belt?

[@hikewild5694]

How is the number plate fitted? I'd like to get a nice clean looking one like this, but is it removable? (For shows or photo shoots.) It's a bit wonky too!! :-)

[@TorqueAutomotive]

Manga Plates bro, means you can remove them when needed. Check them out bro 🙌🏻

[@lukeyyyvxrg1558]

Nice one mate my girlfriend just put my mini threw the garage door and some how lol and that bit was the only broken bit and bent the number plate

[@TorqueAutomotive]

Sorry to hear about the indecent... no worries and thanks so much for the great comment and watching 👍🏻👏🏻

[@H37Z3US]

Good video man. Erm I I’m not sure if this is right, but did you get the number plate part the wrong way round? Looks as if the tow bar is on the other side ?

[@iguana4751]

The tow hook is always on the right hand side, regardless if it’s a right hand drive or a left hand drive car. For cars with PDC it is impossible to mount the black part reversed. I think the same holds true for non-PDC.

[@jonathanpowell1470]

What size torque head did you use?

[@TorqueAutomotive]

30 for the bolts to undo the bumper 👍

[@daniellegge7540]

Hey man. Got a question.. unrated to this vid. Noticed you have the venom decals. I bought a srt. Messed it up. Bought a second... any tips as i cant seem to make it follow a particular line

[@TorqueAutomotive]

Hi man, sorry I don’t I just got very lucky haha. Only tip is keep the decal tight when laying it on… also things always look better far away haha

[@SuperLaviathon]

I need to do this to my JCW but that looked LONG!! My bumper has gone a sort of off black with tiny bit of blue in it? Strange ... really wanna change it but that looked too long.

[@sparkyt6497]

Are you on original cam chain

[@robo6548]

Very useful video! You might like to blur your number plate to avoid it being cloned ;-)

[@TorqueAutomotive]

Thanks for watching 🙌🏻

[@paulyt3339]

Waaaaaay too much work for a piece of trim....

[@964cuplove]

Snapping the clips off - wow - it’s not that hard mate. Also the hydro dipped stuff looks rather awful to me… just get parts really made in carbon or leave it as it is. All that „pretend-wanna-be-lightness“ is just an awful decoration trend…. Just my 2 cents

[@stefant6258]

Truly pathetic watching him struggle.

[@TorqueAutomotive]

I felt the same 😂
