    Justa thought Nathan, you may want to keep that front & rear bumper. Someone may want them since these bumpers are becoming NLA. Someone could piece one back together if it's needed.

    Already have lots of other big parts under there. like a windshield and back glass.

    Everyone does keep a back glass for an R53 under their bed...right?

    Yeah, behind the couch is the main office of the M/A World HQ.

    Much like a MINI, the space here is small and well configured for maximum usability.

    I'm thinking if you hang the bumpers from the ceiling....maybe hang some Christmas Lghts or other holiday lights on it....a MINI CHANDLER...

    My Parents are doing that with their Corolla.

    It's literally the most interesting thing about that car.

    That car needs a Gnat Cave to park in instead of sitting out in the elements of the Short North District.
