I like the look of the chrome bumpers, and was wondering if they would fit on a model with the black rubber bumpers? Also, what are the advantages or disadvantages to owning a later model 914 ('75 and '75)?? Also, any tips when looking to buy a 914 (what to look for and what to avoid). Still looking for the right one.
thanks, appreciate any help. |

Yup...You need the dogbones that go between the bumper and the front pan....you will also have to grind off the lip that the old bumper hang onto....
Check out the FAQs on 914 buying on this site... Later 75-76 models can still be subject to smog inspections depending on your state ...CA does have one or two counties that are exempt, some counties have VERY strict standards....then there are some that are less so.... They have more smog gunk on them if they were a CA car.....they are a bit heavier due to the bumpers and smog stuff. |
