    Hi guys,

    I have had a number of inquires regarding Euro GT4 bumpers; there were several different versions depending on the series of the GT4. Initial ones were chrome and rubber and final versions were all rubber; some of the early ones rusted quickly and appear to be converted to fiberglass ones by the factory authorized dealers.

    I am currently molding the early version of chrome/rubber as a two piece mold with inners and outers for correct mounting; when done and the pieces are complete I will post them.

    COOL!


    The chrome outer nicely matches the glass trim.

    To me the rear benefits the most from a Euro bumper.

    I would agree, the US version, they just chopped off some tail to fit the US spec bumpers mounted to GM shocks that weighed a ton

    You might check out Spectrachrome as a coating for the outer section. Saw their product at SEMA a couple of years ago and it is pretty impressive.

    Great idea for the street; I am producing them for the track; have seen chromed fiberglass GT4 bumpers and they weighed as much as the originals.
