IMHO there isn't a bumper that will work with that car. Maybe T-bars, but that's about it. Why do you want to put anything on?

Depending on the rear overhang, maybe the Manx style rear skidpan that incorporates the small push bar bumper.

Same thing for the front, depends on how far down the beam the body drops.

An Enzmann style chrome 'loop' might be possible?
