Rolls Royce Cullinan Black Badge Rear Bumper

The rear bumper for the Rolls-Royce Cullinan Black Badge is a distinct assembly that differs from the standard (“Silver Badge”) Cullinan primarily through its trim finish and aggressive lower valance design.

As of 2026, there are two generations (Series I and Series II) to consider.

1. Key Features & Finishes

• “Black Chrome” Trim: Unlike the standard Cullinan, which uses mirror-finish stainless steel, the Black Badge features trim (exhaust surrounds, trunk handle, and bumper accents) treated with a specific chrome electrolyte. This creates a “mirror-black” effect that is only about one micrometer thick.

   

• Lower Valance/Diffuser: The Black Badge rear bumper often features a high-gloss black finish on the lower surfaces and valance to visually lower the vehicle’s profile.

   

• Exhaust Surrounds: The exhaust tips are darkened and integrated flush into the bumper trim.

2. Part Numbers & Compatibility

The bumper assembly is complex and usually sold as a “skin” (cover) with separate inserts for the sensors, trim, and exhaust.

Note: Series II (2025+) bumpers are not direct bolt-on replacements for Series I without also updating the taillights and potentially some mounting hardware, as the body lines were refreshed.

3. Pricing & Availability (2026)

• New OEM (Genuine): A complete rear bumper assembly from a Rolls-Royce dealer typically ranges from $8,500 to $12,000 once you include the specialized Black Badge trim and exhaust finishers.

• Used/Take-off: Used bumper skins (often from customization shops or salvage) are currently appearing on the market for $2,600 to $3,500.

• Availability: Due to the bespoke nature of Rolls-Royce, getting a pre-painted bumper in your specific “Commissioned Collection” color is rare; most new parts arrive in primer and must be painted to match your VIN.

4. Technical Alert: The “Low Mode” Exhaust

When replacing the rear bumper on a Black Badge, ensure the active exhaust valves (linked to the “Low Mode” button on the gear stalk) are correctly reconnected. The Black Badge bumper is designed to handle the slightly higher heat and unique acoustic profile of this specific exhaust system.
