    FS: 914-6 rear bumper

    Original piece. Good shape, but needs some love before re-chroming. $550

    There is no difference as long as it is an early bumper with the sharp corners on the license plate cut out.

    That is exactly the difference...914-6 has the sharp corners where the license plate is indented. Standard 914 rear bumper has a modest curve into that area. Maybe someone can chime in with a couple comparison pics...pretty obvious.

    Actually, all early bumpers /4 or /6 were sharp cornered. The later bumper has rounded corners at the edge of the license indent.
