They have front & rear GT bumpers listed in CF for 211.21 Euro each.
This doesn't seem like a bad deal. Shipping is either 79.99 or 99.99 Euro.
Has anyone seen this or touched them? I know Jeroen has that one pic, but any more would be great.

no link.
I just searched "914" & then "bumpers" in the description area. (I hate their page!)
there will be a couple that show up. It's the ones for $211.21. I had to do a translation to figure out it was CF.

It's been too long since I held one in my hands (early 2001) to make any worthwhile comments...
I "remember" them being quite thick (something like 0.4") and not as light you'd expect from a C/F part. OTOH, it gave 'em a nice solid feel, which you would apreciate for a bumper
The build quality looked very good and consistant (German F/G is usually very good) but the surface did have some of the usual pinholes etc.
So if you'd want to have them on your car and leave them unpainted, I think you'll have to do some additional clearcoating/buffing to get them to CW standards
cheers,

I was contacted in a PM buy a lurking member who owns a company specializing in short (30+pieces) CF production. He wants to do these parts for us. So.. unless you are ready to buy now.. hang in there. He is reading these posts and is a fellow 914 owner (I fully support the 914 owners who supply us with manufactured goods).

Brad,
I'd be interested in a set of CF, or even FG, trully formed nice fitting bumpers (if such a thing exists) with mounting brackets at a reasonable price. Keep us posted.

How bout a decent repro of the LE valance in CF ?
Brad Roberts
Dec 24 2003, 03:47 PM
I'm going to ask him for a lot of pieces (like I want to stock everything mentioned + some)
I currently have a stock LE air dam in my truck for layup purposes. They are a lot different than the current crap we buy/get.

Dammit, there you guys go again..................I'm in for nearly anything carbon fibre, I LOVE carbon fibre.
How about rocker pannels too, just smooth, and none of the PORSCHE shit in them. Just plain like stock, OOOOHHHHHH OOOOHHHH and GT flares with nice layed up holes for rivits or stainless screws.........................
I'm sick, I need professional help....................................... but I have a good job.
