I've seen them online & that price is for a pair - F & R - IIRC. Don't know about VAT, nor how they stack up to the OE chrome ones for fit & appearance. Highly polished SS can be as bright as polished chrome, but with a slightly "cooler" (bluish tone) to the silver when viewed side-by-side with chrome, that perhaps only a light meter could detect.
If done exactly to the original attachments, form, fit & finish as stock chromed steel, they'd be a killer answer to essentially rust-free bumper, along the same lines as SS HE's. Being a Brit company, I've only seen the "tit-less variety" Euro-style - or our USA the pre-73 fronts & pre-74 rears - which leaves me out up front, cuz I want to restore my 73 2L to OE with the front tits. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I haven't checked to see if they can make 73-74 fronts or 74 rears with the extra back brackets 7 mounting holes for the USA tits/bumper guards, but Tod914 on here has called them - so maybe PM him on what he learned. Curious to see if anyone has tried them on a 914 - esp. if it's in SoCal somewhere that we can see for ourselves!
