Exactly. Would be nice to see the early bumper version. I only know the stainless steel bumpers as a late version (produced in Vietnam (?), but quality was ok).

George, there is no picture of those ones on your website. They are looking nice. How much the set? Around 1,900 USD again?
Were did you manufacture these ones?

yes 1900 a set with the chrome bumper plug included. Long story made short, when I saw several years ago that Harrington a company in England was making chrome bumpers for the 914, I contacted them about making a quantity, and they said that only once a year did they make them for the 914 as they made them for many other vintage cars as well.
Needing a supply, I contracted with them to make specific tooling for me, and sent bumpers back and forth for awhile until I had good ones, and then did a first run and a second run. I also had them do the rear bumper plug for me.
We are now in the fourth run from my molds. They fit great look great, and certainly enhance the appearance of any 914. We also made the bumper front and rear top seals, the bumper guards and now the driving light and horn grilles to match. The top seals and guards match the original look exactly, but have stainless steel frames inside along with stainless studs. The material is also waterproof so will not absorb water like the old originals. We are most delighted with what we have created, and have some good people doing all of these parts for us

So just to be clear... are these chromed stainless or polished stainless bumpers?

George,

Would you consider a group buy on these? I know a bunch of folks want them but were waiting on the other group buy and can't or won't spend 1900 on a set..

I could but I doubt I can make it happen with the top seals.. I for one have brand new ones sitting in a box waiting for bumpers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

George, that's awfully generous of you. So a group buy with your new stainless front and rear bumpers along with top seals for $914 dollars, I'm in! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Would that include shipping?

Thank you for the what I call, overwhelming response. We have now sold 13 sets and have 17 sets still available. After the 30 are sold we will return to the regular price but will still have plenty in stock. Please remember these are from OUR Harrington molds so are perfect fit. We also have the bumper top seals, the bumper guards, the license plate lights, the driving light kits, and even the chrome horn grilles!

sales are slowing down a bit, so we still have 11 sets left for anyone who wants to take advantage of the group buy. Simply call and mention the club discount.
