I have a connection in Vietnam that can facilitate the purchase of these at a good price. I wanted to get Mark Henery's blessing on this before proceeding but if his deal is dead we would like to put together a GB on these. So pending Mark's response I've posted. We will not make you buy the rubber tops but will offer a discount on them as incentive to help push the thread. Specifics will be pending response from Mark.

Hi guys,
I guess it's time that I write here something to shut down all speculations about the "not trusted" supplier from Vietnam. George put a lot of effort in this project to finish it with us many years ago and we had the deal, that if he orders a certain quantity he will have exclusivity for the Porsche 914 bumpers in the US. Until now the quantity was never ordered hence we sold these bumpers also to retail customers in the US. However, now the quantity we asked for was ordered and he will have exclusivity for the 914 bumpers in the US from now on. So I would suggest that you guys organise a group buy from George and I am pretty sure he will grant you guys a decent discount for the bumpers! regarding the Group buy Mark Henry is/was organising - I wrote already a long text in the other thread about the faulty bumpers and our competitor PTT. There is nothing more to say about this. Should you have any questions please let me know. Best regards Christoph (Harrington Group) |

We do not claim that the reproduction bumpers are the real Porsche bumpers. They are not sold as originals. The real bumpers are made of mild steal and are chrome plated. Ours are reproduction ones made of stainless steel. So in a way our bumpers are a totally different product. Porsche does not make these bumpers anymore and it is completely legal to reproduce them for Porsche owners or others. |
