I really like they short bug style from the 50's
Those appear to have a chrome finish? My CMC ones were solid aluminum (with no finish) which can be polished to a bright near chrome look. If those are aluminum and not pot metal they could be polished I'd think. Otherwise they could be rechromed.
Good day Sir;
Do you still have these? if so what are you asking for them?
Short bug style?...
At the 2011 Carlisle, Greg Billingsbach had early VW chromed guards mounted fore-'n-aft on his red speedster. They're only about 7" in height...very subtle...very cool.
He had to reshape (grind) a speedster bumper profile on to them for a seamless attachment. Greg also went to the extreme of asymmetrically grinding them to eliminate the 'wall-eyed' splayed look, i.e., they weren't positioned at 90degrees to the bumper's curve.
Maybe somebody has a photo of this mod in their 2011 Carlisle files?
Yes I still have them.
I'm asking $400.00 OBO
VS has new aluminum ones for $125 a pair - so $250 for a set.
The ones I have are "Original" as you can see.
If one wants "New" then by all means, $250.00 is the way to go.
