Hi All,
I didn't get my 914 to the VW meet today. Turnout was light, Frog Island (the oorigianl Ypsi. MI site) was under water. The VW meet was moved a few blocks away. I believe the 914-6's out numbered the 4's. Here are some pictures taken by me. Hope you enjoy.

And now my favorite 914 at the meet. It's just like mine except for a few little items.

Them R sum NICE 914s Tom...B-Yoo-T-Full

Why are there so many fantastic cars there of all places????

The local VW shows will not allow 914s to participate.

I hope these 914 owners can participate in the 914 club BBS...

Very nice pics......

One of our 356 friends Sabasten Gatica. (sorry if I spelled it wrong) It's a beauty. He is a future 914er.

I forgot Dave (Barber) Kimple. Sorry Dave

Stellmach's 6er Tool Kit

how do we get in touch with the guy who make s the fiberglass bumper tops? any clue on howmuch they cost? looks so freakin awesome!

I need 2 of -em! they CAN't be more than the rubber ones!

I like.....

Ok Guys.
Rick is a local & we (SMOG) will look into getting this info. out. I was thinking any finish could be applied. how about wrinkle Satin finish to look like the original??
Help me out SMOG guys.
Tom

Sorry, I didn't get his card but he said that they were $159 each. They really looked awesome. I'm sure someone will chime in with his contact info.

Well, it looks like Took took all the good pictures today, but here a few more.

#6, for the artsy crowd. Sorry about the sizing, just need more practice

159.00? thats close to the rubber cost! do i hear "group buy?"

the rubber costs close to 2x that! and this looks better!

I'll do my best to buy a front and rear on the group buy! a gloss black would even be sweet!

The first ever of his F/G bumper caps that I saw were with a satin black finish. I thought they were OEM except that they looked better than original. It wasn't until I picked one up that I realized that it wasn't rubber. They are thick F/G too, not flimsy Great pics there guys. Here's a couple of the non 914's I took some pics of.
