Bumpers?
« on: June 18, 2007, 04:19:22 PM »
Ah....wolfsburgwest is out of stock on the early beetle bumpers and will be for quite a while! This is the only major item holding me back right now unless I have issues with the engine when I fire it next week.
Anyway, are there any other bumpers I can buy which are as good as the W.W.W. bumpers? I know CIP is selling a more expensive bumper which I think is imported from England....has anybody seen these?
Chroming is not an option but asI  have no original bumper pieces that are worthy of chroming!
Thanks
Gerry

I was at WW a few weeks ago, they have some seconds for sale, they looked  pretty nice to me. I'd call them, it might be worth it..just re chrome the bits that aren't perfect.
