What's the issue with tourer bumpers then? I'd have thought there would be an equal, maybe bigger demand for the Premium bumper fittings, grill, etc.

Facelift Tourer bumpers haven't been available new for ages, if you have £300 to spare you can still buy Mk1 Tourer bumpers - http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-DQC101531LML

This is good news. I wonder if the manufacturing process will lend itself to correcting the bonnet gap and slight misfit with the top of the wings.

feel free to call me thick if you like but is there a difference between the tourer and saloon bumper as it doesn't mention the saloon.
