I have purchased a set of ghia and early & towel rail bumpers. Quailty was very good & shine was good. Thinner than steel but no rust issues. My2c

Don't make an inquiry if you're not ready to purchase though, or you'll be hounded till the end of your days:lol: Still receiving emails years later begging me to buy.

Don't know about Vietnam ones, but I got mine through this mob for my bus and they are very good quality, check thier other listings for different years/styles, also check different currencies as it sometimes work out to be less Aussie $'s shame the Aussie $ is down

That price looks really good! What is the thickness like as i have heard that the stainless steel bumpers are quite thin compared to the original items.


splitbus - February 11th, 2015 at 08:37 PM

Not as thick but not to thin, good quality


vw54 - February 12th, 2015 at 06:03 AM

the bumpers I have seen have had really sharp edges could do with a blend to stop you slicing your fingers open when you wash the car

I have blade style bumpers on my ghia but I was going to get the US style with the towel rails. Does anyone know if you can just add the towel rails and the new over riders you would need on blade bumpers.. maybe a better way to go and I know then they'd fit .
