I have two sets from my failed GB attempt. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

I shit canned the deal due to QC issues that required me to put 8+ hours into fitting each set, which made it a money loser for me. These two sets have been fitted, one set perfect, other set has minor cosmetic issues that would be hard to see installed.
Just looking to recoup some of my investment.

The Stainless Bumpers are made in Vietnam by a company
Based in the U.K. called Harrington...
A year or more ago, AA bought a bunch of the bumpers
and by the amount they bought, triggered an exclusive deal
where Harrington gave AA rights to sell to the U.S. so we are no
longer able to buy direct from the manufacturer..
Since you are in Canada, if a more local deal doesn’t work out,
I’d suggest you contact Harrington directly.
I bought mine direct a few years ago and it went great and they
Look great in my car...

I thought I remember reading that the deal was good for a year or two. I don’t remember the details.

Since I already got mine before that situation happened, I didn't keep on top of it.
It is nice to have choices where to buy.

Like I mentioned, I bought mine direct and they came from Vietnam via DHL and came right to my house in a timely manner. I'm sure I posted about it at that time..

Here is the rear bumper on my car... AND, I know it is a later bumper on an early car.
I still have my original rear bumper and it will go with the car when the time comes.
The bumper top is from 914 Rubber

Like I said.....
If your attempts at a local sale fail,
Go directly to the manufacturer....
