Does anyone know if the fiberglass bumpertops ever panned out? Any info where to purchase them. Prefere a front one. Thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Those are 7" cookies and they look great on his car. Well, they look great on any narrow 914

With the 15x7 cookies(23mm offset) I had to roll the lips in the rear and do a alittle pulling on the drivers side to get them not to rub. The offset is just about perfect on the inside with this combo. The fronts are actually alittle close to the strut and I am going to be puting in a spacer to fill out the front wheel well. Jon, I may actually take you up on this. Got to think about it alittle. Kyle |

I have heard that some of the fiberglass replacement bumpertops need to be reworked in order to fit(cut, reglassed etc). Whats everyones take on the ones that were posted above (http://www.carlrudolph.com/gpage.html ).

I pulled them out of the box for a quick look when they came in awhile back and they look nice. Bumpers are kind of buried in the garage. Maybe this weekend I can try to test fit them. Richard |
