Product description

Our classic Volkswagen is getting older and has experienced a number of problems in the meantime that have not always left it unscathed. Most bumpers are affected by rust over the years and have significant and/or minor damage. You may want to consider restoring your bumpers and having them rechromed. If this is no longer an option, these stainless steel bumpers are a great alternative.

The great thing about stainless steel is that your bumpers will look exactly the same in a few years as they did when you put them on, without having to pay too much attention to maintenance.

Virtually all of the models that have been used on our classic Volkswagens are available in polished stainless steel, with guards, without guards, or the export bumpers that come with protective tubes.

If the mounting hardware is included, you should check if it is stainless steel (stainless steel is not magnetic). In some cases, this is not the case and we recommend that you replace the mounting hardware with stainless steel. If you do not want rust from galvanized or chrome plated bolts, make sure that the mounting to the bumper brackets is done with stainless steel mounting hardware (see options tab).

Note: It is recommended to clean stainless steel parts thoroughly with a stainless steel cleaner immediately after assembly (see options tab). In every workshop, metal particles swirl around (caused by grinding and sanding, among other things). If these particles get on the stainless steel, they can cause rust. It is not the stainless steel that rusts, but the iron particles that swirl and deposit on the stainless steel. Also, stainless steel is not chlorine resistant and can cause a rust reaction if it comes in contact with the flowers of certain trees or shrubs. Use a stainless steel cleaner to clean and give stainless steel a protective coating.
