Hello!
currently working on the headlights right now, but I know bumpers are going to be coming up quickly. I have been looking around for a while now, and Vince says he hasn't had any come by lately, so I decided to come right to the experts!
I am planning on backdating my bumpers to the chrome ones, and I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions on who to talk to to find them?
also if any of you have already backdated your bumpers, leave any tips or things you wish you did here!

Inquire at Group Harrington
for Stainless Steel Bumpers..

Buy from the Manufacturer….



---------------------------------

You have to buy these from George at AA as he has the distribution deal in the USA
His price is a number of $100s more that shown on Harringtons site. Look at AA for the price. He has them in stock

So that is out as far as the price shown from Harringtons site. Ask Oscar what he knows, he is a super nice 914 Buddy and has been a source for chrome bumpers for a while

I believe Harrington still sells them direct.

Mark, I sent them an email and they said not in the USA as they have a deal with AA George
