EK ute bumperettes and tailgate wanted

Post by Sam_Pearce »

Hi

Just wondering if anyone has some bumperettes and/or a tailgate to suit an EK ute. I'm located on the Gold Coast, QLD, but happy to pay for freight.

I can be contacted on 0438 798 143 or sam_pearce_@hotmail.com

Cheers

I don't mind paying for postage for bumperettes if anyone has any interstate.

They are hard to find in any condition these days, I have been looking for a pair for a while now .....
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

Hey guys,
There is a pair on eBay but you need to extend the home loan as they are not cheap. However.......... the seller is earlybitz and the fine print says you need to send a good pair as a changeover :shock:

So for $549.99 plus another $30 (postage) you get a pair of bumperettes chromed!!! I had my ute bumpers repaired and rechromed for around $300 from memory.

Hi Sam I have 2 tailgates in Perth but both need a fair amount of work I bought 3 before I found one that I thought I could fix with my limited skills.
As Stephen said if you find good ones you had better take out a second mortgage or give up your first born I saw a tailgate go for over $1000 last year on evilbay and I wouldn't say it was perfect.
I also have a couple of sets of bumperettes Blacky/Sam but again they all need work and re-chroming.
Let me know if you are interested and I could send some photos.

Yes, I gave Pete the old ones from my van.
They need repairing, but like everyone, he is chasing a better set.
