Default Brand new Reproduction bumper top have been available

Just a heads up - I haven't posted much in this forum although I have been making the 944 LCD repair kits for some time. I'm pretty much a one man show, but have taken on theses and other hard to find parts because they were not available or they were way too expensive for what they were.

Brought these to market some time ago and have been steadily making them one at a time.

I've been making the rubber bumper tops for quite some time. The are a solid rubber (not foam like the OEM ones) and have a stainless steel support and mounting hardware). I do however have the option of not including the stainless support for the

I make these here in the USA and have the quality to export to Germany with repeat business. My production is just spooling up again and I have more new stuff n the way.

Just nice to have more than one source for these.

Want to find these just google 914 rubber and see what comes up

Not a shameless plug, just a choice of Coke or Pepsi.

Is the dog for sale too?

Are you the same guy that makes lots of 914 rubber parts? I've heard very good things about that guy - the 914 rubber .com guy?

I am mikey914 on the world site, and I do lots of stuff there. Just wanted to let it be known that there is another source for this stuff.

I do this as more of a hobby as I really like making these parts for our cars that are no longer available. Most parts I do because I need them, but it usually turns out there are a few others too. Apparently AA wanted to make these more commercially available, I do these up at a rate of 1-2 per week max. I actually was selling to AA, but they didn't like the idea that the 1st front ones didn't have an internal support. I thought it was redundant as it bolts to a piece of steel, but do offer it in both flavors now.

I've been a member here for years and was most active in the 944 turbo forum and making the LCDsfor the clocks.

I have purchased quite a few of the 914Rubber parts as Mark has released them. I have found them to be of very good quality and fit. My car has never been quieter while I have owned it. I highly recommend...
