They seem to be nice, what about the prices ? Though I never had any problems with german chrome bumpers.

Once again, we '67 Type 1 owners are left out.

Those are only correct for up until '66, but will fit a '67.

...and only if you have a later '67.  Early '67s had the same bumpers as '66.

I have heard they are very thin and the fit is not too good.
Also they cannot be a good grade of stainless as you can stick a magnet to them !
If you read the Samba thread, you will hear the same.

What about the front overrider? The early cars got the straighter one? Besides, I was being kind of a smartass when I posted that. The stainless theory is interesting... I'd like to see a set in person.
