Those are either custom made or else Brazilian ribbed aluminum ones...way back in the day I think I recall those advertised in HotVWs but I haven't seen them in a while.

That is Brian Schlepp's Purple Passion fastback....or at least it was. Sweet car. I had the good fortunate of checking out the car and meeting Brian at the 2002 Invasion.
Those are Britz (or Briz) Bumpers. Used to be available for Type 3's. Not sure if they still are around or not.

| They`re Briz bumpers. Briz has been making Hot Rod bumpers for a very long time and I`m sure they are still around. You`ll have to some research. |

| "Briz" (rhymes with "fizz") is derived from the creator's last name "Brizio". Both are correctly spelled. Many people are unfortunately ignorant of correct spellings. |
