Post by Morten Etype » Sun Feb 17, 2013 8:36 pm

Hi
Does anyone have experience with Bumperworlds or Groupharrington Series 3 European style bumpers. The fit, and are they very similar to the originals. Regards 1974 E type with big big bumpers, that need a set of European style.

No personal experience but they are stainless steel rather than chrome so may look odd alongside the rest of the chrome on the car - blue tint vs yellow tint. On the plus side you can grind them to fit the body contours (standard practice with repro bumpers) without worrying about re-chroming. You will need to be careful not to 'blue' the s/s with the grinder though because it is almost impossible to remove. If you have the original bumpers it is better to get them repaired and re-plated.
