I have a 76 914 and am thinking about back dating the bumpers. I had a set of Chrome bumpers that I let get away and now I am kicking myself. So, how does the fiberglass bumpers work out? I know they are not crash worthy but I would like to see some examples and hear the pitfalls.
Thanks Brian |

The choice to backdate or not....obviously a personal preference. But to answer your question, I would talk to Jim Patrick at Patrick Motorsports. 90% of the cars he builds leave with one piece fiberglass bumpers/tops. They look amazing. Check out his website to see if you like the look. Then call him for tips. He has always been incredibly helpful when I call or go down to see him.
