Hi Everyone,
I'm looking for a set (front and rear), of early beetle bumpers and brackets. Im after the early model smooth bumpers without the over riders or towel rail. Dont have to be perfect!

They are to go with my aero guards, i just want a second hand pair as they will be widened and re-chromed to fit.

Early brackets dont come through the guards like L bugs do. They come through the vallance / panel.
So i dont think early brackets will be any good.
Late brackets are too wide.
I "believe" you need 75/76 brackets that have a rubber bit on top.
I have been told that with out the rubber top piece these will fit the blade style.
I have some but i am sure it will be better if you can find some your side.
One of the Melbourne guys put blades on his oval. Might want to check with him.
Will try and remember who.

If the Bumpers are widened from inside the mounting points and the bolting points are modified (ie re drilled) they fit.
Had some on an old bug of mine

As stated above Anthony, i want EARLY bumpers, i already have late bumpers!

Good luck Ash.... I've been looking for good(ish) OG blades for my Rag for 18 months.... I found a good rear one at Billys before they closed shop.... I do have a set that you can have, but they have GOLF indicators in the front bumper and they have holes for the overriders.... But they are OG..... I can grab them when Im next down the farm if you want them....
dont forget guys
Ash has Aero guards on milly, so the bumpers will need to be cut to make them wider to suit the guards.
So they will need to be re chromed or painted once she is done.
So anything without huge dents, towlrail holes and serious rust would be good for her to use.
