Did someone organize a bumper rechroming group buy in the past? I thought I read that some where? I was wondering if it was worth to try and organize another one?

Mark:
If you can find someone besides Harrington to reproduce bumpers in Stainless, that would be great.. My reply was more pointed toward anyone thinking Harrington would drop their 1700.00 price to 1000.00 for a group buy. If someone wants to try, I guess it can't hurt to ask though. The guy I dealt with at Harrington was a marketing manager and seemed like a nice enough guy. If you are going to send a set of bumpers to someone to make the dies from, be sure to send an early rear bumper. Harrington only has the later ones . Early rears would open a whole new market for 914-6 restorations.. |

Early rears would open a whole new market for 914-6 restorations.. That likely can be done BUT someone would have to step up and supply a sample bumper. I'm positive that the bumper would not be harmed and returned, but of course you would be running the shipping risk. I believe it's shipped through Fed-Ex. BTW I'm keeping some details under wraps for now, but I'm not looking to make any coin on the deal. Just any out of pocket for sample bumper shipping, etc. |
