 BS, if those bumpers were twice the price you would see them around. I inquired a few years back on a set for a 60's beetle can't remember exact price but they were like 5x the price of a VS item.

I enquired about a set of s/s bumpers for my Fleetline at the end of last year, to get it to sunny SA would've cost me R17k. Now if I could get a set at half that price I will surely consider it.

R17k for bumpers is alot of dosh....you could buy another running project...

Wouldn't a fully restored FLEETLINE cost R17k? Kinda wouldn't make sense to spend the same amount on bumpers!
