Todd:

If I'm not mistaken, both Ken at Vanagain = (www.vanagain.com) and Ron at Bus Depot (www.busdepot) sell replacement = bumpers, both OEM and aftermarket.  Ken has the Projektzwo = bumpers, but they are EXPENSIVE.

At Bus Depot, they are $90:

Another alternative is a big beefy tubular bumper = like the one David sells at

Subject: 1990 bumper

I'm trying to determine how difficult it is going to = be to locate a bumper
for the 1990 Vanagon I may buy.  I called our = import junkyard, he said he
didn't have any 1987-1991 bumpers, didn't see any on = his locater computer,
but if he did have one it would run $250 = -$300.

Is this the sort of thing that is going to be = difficult to find?  And no, I
don't really want to bolt a treated 2x6 onto my = $7,000 purchase.

Thanks.
