Checking Availability: Factory RS bumper corners

[Shaun 69 E]

I am considering adding factory RS flares to my 73T. I can get the bumper corners from Porsche for less than I thought, but still quite a lot.

Haven't seen them advertised in a while, are they out there? Price?

Alternatively, has anyone taken a plastic 1-piece rear bumper and cut the corners off and glassed in proper mounts?

if my memory is right there's another thread on this exact issue, they are available.

Hi,

They are available new; I have a two pairs here. Sorry I can't remember the retail cost of hand.

Thanks

thanks Alan, yes, I can get them from Porsche for as little $540 + 20% + shipping from Germany. Stoddard has one in stock I believe.

I am buying one set that are a little bit of a mystery, one looks factory and one looks made up, both have issues but the price the right.

I'm hoping I can find a decent set at a good price in the next 2+ months.

I'm not a big fan of modifying any early body, even my thrown together 73T, so want to at least use all factory sheetmetal.

Hi Shaun

I have an original pair taken from a RS. They need work but are 100% originals. I can grab some pics if it helps but it may be a few days. I will also get a quote for you for a new pair if it helps.

Thanks

Hi Shaun,

Sorry I did not get any snaps today, but here is one on the car before we stripped it. It looks better than it is. I can also supply new ones if it helps. Mine are around $500 each plus shipping.



Thanks

Thanks Alan,

I'll be in the market for a pair, either NOS or factory used, middle of February it looks like. Just missed a driver side on UK eBay sold for 250 pounds.

Hi Shaun,

If I can help let me know. I knew of the one that just sold on ebay, in fact I was round his house the other day looking at something else. But at £250 it is not that far of what they are new from Porsche. Last time I checked a few days ago there were 2 pairs in Germany.

HTH
