There is a pair of bumperettes on gumtree but they are overpriced at $500. They also need repairing too!

Hey Ziggy if you are willing to repair bumperettes I have a few pair hanging in the roof of my workshop at home.
Let me know and I will have a look and pick out the best 2 if they are any good.

I bought a pair through the facebook group - supposedly perfect - went to put them on yesterday and the rear flat section was at least 15 degrees away from correct angle and the brand new chrome was already flaking off - my advice find a decent un- repaired set and get a panel shop to fix and straighten and get them chromed - expensive but better than getting an expensive peace of crap

Thanks Neil, yes, please see if you have a decent pair and let me know. I think getting some repaired will be my best option.
