Here's a little green cutie on the 'bay. I don't know what these bumpers are but I like 'em.

dont know about the bumpers, but i sure wouldnt bid $4000 for a one sentence description car, hmmm?

Well, no. It's a terrible ad. Good looking car, though.

They were an aftermarket and sometimes dealer installed accessory from a company called Amco. They are sometimes refererred to as overriders.

They are often available on e-bay... even some new old stock ones!

They make me think fondly of my 356 and my old VWs.

I like that color, too. I know not everyone likes bright green but it's one of my favorite colors for the 914.

zambezi? looks like the color under my black paint

Sweetie.... I already got beat up over posting that link, nobody cool enough here but you.


M

Great minds think alike...and fools seldom differ.

It's you & me against the world, Miles!

Hopeful: They don't stand a chance!

Realistic: We are fucked.


M

Oh, we're fucked all righty. Make no mistake about that.

But we look good, and that's all that matters.

Not really, I just heard a Neil Young public service announcement about rust.


M

Neil was never pretty in the first place, though. I'm not sure I can trust him on this matter.

Here's some pics I have (that someone sent me) from the original Adco brochure.

Next page.

Next! Note that they made that center armrest and a center console. And even stuff for "lesser" Porsches.

Last page I have...

Aw, yeah. I dig the luggage racks!

Thanks for the pics, Dave. Neat stuff.

Hi all, attached are a couple more pics of the bumper guards, and i agree with queenie & redshift, they are cool!! (have a set to go on my '14 but dont want to drill my chrome bumpers!!)

Adam

Hey DD,
Thanks for those pictures! I bought a 914 luggage rack back when I had my first 914. I still have it just cuz it's neat but I never plan on using it on the car...messes up the look!

Are there any of the center consoles aruond anymore? A center armrest would be nice.

I am the same way, I don't wanna cut my bumpers.
