Unless I am mistaken, 5mph bumpers are a thing in the US. Has to have no body damage for a 5mph 'crash' into a parked vehicle. Why? Beats me. Made a lot of US spec cars of a certain era look odd.

Actually, I think the Chiron needs to be modified with special bumpers for US sale...

Edit: lets see if this works...
