Well, the GT didn't have a steel rear bumper.

The rear bumbper is part of the moulding;

It isn't a Broadspeed

Look at the lines of this one (the original Broadspeed press car)

Is the one with the metal bumper a real Broadspeed? Roof line look wrong?

66s aka Al in New Zealand has a Broadspeed as well.

I'm sure he'll be able to help.

The supposed last one built, that featured in Hot Car, appears to have front and rear Elf/Hornet bumpers






EOP 89D had a moulded rear bumper and a moulded front when at Goodwood in 2009





EOP 88D? was the same as 89D

I have some Fibreglass front and rear Elf/Hornet bumpers. Moulds from NOS Bumpers.

Does anyone ever bother to look at the main site?

On page 2 of the brochure

Bumpers Rear bumper fitted with anodised aluminium mould-
ing, insert with black rubber finisher. Front bumper
moulded in fiberglass, with insert panel for registration
plate, fitted with anodised aluminium moulding, insert
with black bump rubber finisher.

So no steel bumpers fitted from Broadspeed Engineering LTD.

Mr West's car isn't in the costum car part for nothing, it's a costum and not a Broadspeed production car!
