Hi all,

are there annyone who knows what these overriders come from ?

Wood&Pickett fitted them on my car, and as you can see is the rubber perished, so I am searching for the original car they came off ?

All I know is that they are from 1973/74, as thats when they appeared in the WP pricelist.

I have searched for nearly 5 years now, but so far NOTHING Sad

As you can see, does the rubber go all the way around the edges, never seen others like it .







The 2 sides, are made from stainless steel, and center is normal metal (rusty)

Hi Smile

Thanks a lot, for the replies

as you can see, are these overiders not easy to identify

I have now tried for more than 5 years, incl the last 4 on the internet.

Loads of overriders look simelar, but non that are identical Rolling Eyes

Hi all,


Just found another strange thing today Question that early Clubman/GT bumper I have,
on which the overriders fit correct, are made in Italy Question

why has anyone made a bumper for such a car in Italy ? when Innocenti didnt make a Clubman/GT ?


It is also completely different, to all the other Clubman/GT bumpers I have Confused

But those WP overriders fit perfectly on it, thats the important thing Cool


here it is





And here is why I cant use the 90ies Rover bumper.




The WP overriders dont fit upright Rolling Eyes
