Art, here's one of the SS wrapped front hood handles.

This guy thinks it is aluminum, and he's got it in the wrong classified section.

Art get a used one with NO dings and send it to hector at all brite polishing! It will look better than a NOS one.

Hi art, The one's on right I know are repo from WW, The ones on left I am not sure, There is no part#. If they are what you need, Send me your address and will send them to you. PS I have used SS handles on both my cars that I redid and you cant tell. Stainless is very hard and dont scratch very EZ.

The VW original should have the p/n on them. That's why there are so hard to come by..Also, the repops bottom seal are not a perfect fit.
Compare the two bottom seal how the shape are so off from each other..

Thanks for the offer.
