I am in the process of redoing my chrome bumpers. I will be replacing both front and rear rubber tops. Just wondering who makes the best and most accurate replacements (AA, 914Rubber, etc.). Or perhaps there’s someone out there who would like to sell an NOS set. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Thanks

Regarding the fiberglass option..... buy them before the maker stops breathing.

Like @tygaboy said..... they are nice.

But they are also a rather PAIN to purchase. The guy runs his shop like pre-internet.

One day they will be gone for good...... don't say I didn't warn you.

Hopefully not too late...
Went to order a front pad to replace my lumpy original. PayPal order would not go as it was "Sold Out".
I sent an email asking if there are any scheduled plans for more.

@vitamin914 - this is what Robert meant. When I went to order mine, I sent an email asking how best to buy them. He was super nice and let me know when they'd be available. I checked back once, IIRC and got an update. It's just a bit different experience than we've all become accustomed to.
And I'll say it again: These are worth whatever you have to go through to get them.
