Gauging interest, Bumpers, Stainless steel.
Group buy, ten sets and it's a go. Note we now do have more than ten potential buyers. Looks like $1200/set plus shipping, Shipping will be approximately $150. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Yes sorry please note the price has gone up. Shipping would be by UPS, Fedex or TNT what ever works out the best. You will get a tracking number. 304 polished Stainless steel, thickness is 1.5 (.060) to 2mm (.079), the stock sheet is 2mm the bending and stretching means some areas get thinner. With brackets, we can delete the tit bolt holes and the licence plate mount holes on the front. Would at least be 8 weeks out, I have to get the first set for approval. I will want a deposit say $250, the deposit will be non refundable*, but you can give/sell it to someone else. Balance would be due before shipping TBA. I won't be taking deposits till I approve the sample set. If you have some points to make on what features you want or concerns you may have, now's the time to speak up. So if your interested chime in, but please only if you are serious on getting in on the buy. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) *Notes Price is not 100% firm yet, lets say it's 97% firm. If in the odd chance the deal doesn't pan out or if there's an unreasonable price increase the deposit would be refunded. That said I don't expect problems either way. Besides I won't be taking deposits till the the final approval and the price is nailed down. Sorry my fellow Canadians...of course the prices are in USD. Options Note I have changed the option from "delete " to "ADD" All bumpers have no licence plate, bumperette (tit) or tow ring/hook holes. (all bumpers will have the bumper top holes, fog light/grill square holes) Please ADD the holes you wish to have. Option A/ ADD tit bolt holes. N/C Option B/ ADD front plate bolt holes. N/C Option C/ ADD rear plate bolt holes. N/C Option D/ ADD rear tow hook hole. N/C Option E/ Front bumper cooler mod. $150 (guesstimate price at this point, final price and availability TBA) Buyers list JmuRiz, one set, option C, D, E * maf914, one set, option C, * sb914, one set billh1963, one set, option C, * mepstein, one set, option C, E*. note 2nd set likely PM before close Norskpole, one set, option C, E (was delete A, B, D) hoizonntally-opposed, one set ED_914, one set, option E * mb911, one set, options C, D 72914wrx, one set, option C, D, E (was delete A, B, D) 72914wrx, one set for his dad, option C Bartlett 914, options none * zerliq, option C, E (was delete A, B, D) amfab,options C (was delete A, B, D) olympic 1.7, set options C, D bahnzai, set, option E zoedog, set, option C, D Mitox, set, option C, E live free & drive, set, option C jet1, set, option C cuddyk, option B, C, D JimFitz33, options A, B, C, D Mikey914, set DickSteinkamp, option C and E, set live free & drive, front only, option E JOEPROPER, Front only, option B,C, D (was delete options A) pete000, two front only DB9146, front * member has checked their order All bumpers have no holes unless you chose an option above. Just a general disclaimer: The car I'm using to check the fit is my cherry, never been hit anywhere anyhow '74 914. I'm also sending bumper tops so the fit of the top can be checked, I have good condition bumper tops on my end to verify the fit. I'm doing a shit load of work here guys. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) If your car has been hit, rust restored, etc. etc. etc. I can NOT be responsible for poor fit. These also should be considered 10 foot away bumpers, I'm trying for more like 5 foot away. That means from 10 feet away they look perfect. If you're expecting absolutely perfect concours quality bumpers please do NOT buy these bumpers. Get your OE bumpers rechromed. |

*ATTEN MODS
Is this a spam thread? Are you gonna post it in every forum? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) Seriously I'm interested in front bumper only. (no holes) Maybe someone only needs the rear? I'll split the costs... say 30-70? OK 40-60 (rear bumper is heavier) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) Shipping will be more than half price. But this is a good time to point out that Stainless isn't chrome, Stainless steel will be slightly duller than a chrome bumper. So it won't be a 100% match. |

Copy that Mark but I don't think they make early rear? It's for my six and I'm tired of trying to find a front in good condition....

So are these the stainless bumpers that are already on the market or a new manufacturer?

Can you do the front ones to incorporate the space for an oil cooler like I think Mcmarck has done on a few.

Got mine at HPH. I know AA sells these also and there is a place in the U.K that also has them. I am assuming yours are from the same manufacturer......Vietnam ?
Makes no differance your price is better..... For those who don't know the differance between stainless and chrome you would have a hard time telling them apart. My bumper shines up way better then this pic shows.  |
