Subject:      wanted: good used chrome rear bumper...  yes,
              i am actually serious :)
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

ok folks.. i never thought id be posting a WTB for a good used chrome rear bumper (pipe dream? haha perhaps!) but i literally have no good ones at this point anymore.. i can remember in the late 90's i had a whole stack of them, but theyre long gone..

i have a few lingering on parts vans, but they are beyond straightening or they are crappy rusted aftermarket ones.. i have one OEM german one on a '87 i pounded back into shape with a mallet and blocks of wood (i am actually very good at straightening bumpers) but it was hammered so bad even my expertise couldn't make it look passable..

sooo... i am ONLY interested in the OEM german ones.... doesn't have to be perfect!! some dents or wavyness is ok, i can straighten it out if its not too bad.. so if you have a OEM german used one laying aroung - even if its not perfect- PM me (with pics please) and if its usable i will buy it from you...

thanks..

and fyi - the OEM german ones have the holes forthe trim strip already in them, and the metal is a lot thicker than the aftermarket ones..and the chrome doesn't fail either.. OEM only!..please no aftermarket ones.

let me know!
