I've not been to the new store.

I've used those up-spec rolled end bumpers, they are quite good.
I've a pair here I will use on the 997. The ones on there are similar, but dented to crap.

Thank You Slacko, I am glad You like the bumpers
I sold two bumpers To Rocky Canto the other day and within about 2 hours
He came back and got another two He could not believe how good they looked
and Fitted, It is good when you get a Good product
Re the Online shop Thanks Largely to a Friend of mine it is coming along nicely
I am not sure how I would have got it done without His help.
I still have a lot of second Hand parts But It will be a while before they are
online
