Purpose and Function of the Component

The rear bumper bracket slider in the Mini Clubman R55 LCI is responsible for the correct guidance and support of the rear bumper relative to the body structure. This element:

• stabilizes the bumper's position relative to the fenders and tailgate,
• reduces unwanted play and vibrations of the cover,
• facilitates the correct alignment of gaps between body panels,
• supports the maintenance of the factory geometry of the rear body section.

Thanks to the use of an original bracket, it is possible to restore the factory bumper mounting after accident repairs, cover replacement, or disassembly during other service work.

Original Origin and Replacement Numbers

The presented slider comes from the Mini parts line and complies with the OEM designation intended for the facelifted Clubman R55. The element has assigned interchangeable numbers, which facilitates selection in service catalogs and verification of compatibility with a specific equipment version.

This allows a mechanic or body shop technician to quickly check compatibility with a given vehicle instance, and the use of parts from the Other Mini category helps maintain consistency with factory technical documentation.

Condition, Application, and Mounting Benefits

The bracket is offered as a used part, allowing for economical repair while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. In practice, this means:

• the ability to restore correct rear bumper mounting without the need for aftermarket alternatives with uncertain fit,
• easier installation due to the preservation of the factory geometry of the mounting points,
• reduced risk of subsequent creaks, looseness, and uneven gaps around the bumper.

By using an original slider, the service has greater control over the final repair outcome, and the user gains stable and predictable bumper mounting in daily operation.

Part Selection and Compatibility with Mini Clubman R55 LCI

To correctly select the rear bumper bracket slider for a specific Mini Clubman R55 LCI instance, it is recommended to:

• verify the OEM part number in the manufacturer's catalog or service documentation,
• compare the shape and mounting points with the element removed from the vehicle,
• check if the vehicle is a facelift (LCI) version, according to model designations.

This approach minimizes the risk of error and helps maintain consistency with the factory mounting system for the given year and equipment version.
