I'm in love with the way this front bumper looks.
Who offers this and will it fit our tubs easily?
(referring to the upper/top bar on the front bumper)

There might be others, but I've only seen them on IM's.
To quote Charles Gardner, "I would observe that fitting the chrome overriders to the front bumpers of a 356A is one of the more difficult and time consuming tasks associated with the assembly of these cars. You will note that most of the assemblers do not do this much anymore and for good reasons."
Steve Lawing of SAS is fitting one to my build as we speak. I know of only one other that he's done in the past. See photo below. I love the look of the overriders.
^^ very nice!
So the bottom line is, it can be done but is very time consuming and that likely equates to additional $$ for the build right?
You are correct, sir! Ya wants 'em, it's gonna cost ya!
does anyon know where can you buy the hardware? just IM?

That's pretty good info... I didn't know the diff. years the high/low bars were offered. Wonder how much he's asking for them (if he still offers them)?
Who's gonna send him an email? Group buy?

VINCE WILL HE LOVES THIS TYPE OF STUFF
Vince it is!
Dear Vince,
Please set up at your earliest convenience said group buy for high/low bars. Also please establish a fabricator who is willing to install said products for pennies on the dollar.
kthnxbye

The ad says "custom-fitted to your bumper." That either means he comes to you (kinda pricey), you go to him (also pricey), or you send your bumper to him.
By area code, it appears that he is in SoCal.
Ok, I'll shoot him an email
