Thanks Mike and Bill,
That was exactly the info I was looking for.
I went up into my attic today and looked at my stash of VW bodyparts. I
have two complete rear bumpers and an odd rear towel rail. I noticed that what
I have has good towel rails too. Actually I paid thru my nose for the last rear
bumper I got as it was in amazingly good shape for a local car. Have a single
front which is not too good.
The blades are not too good as they have dings n dents. lets see how I
would tackle that issue as Brazil made blades of inferior quality were
available a while ago but not now.
I would nevertheless go ahead with my attempt to purchase the NOS stuff
tho. It took me a couple of years to locate whatever odd bumper parts I have
now.
Asad.
