Originally sold by Empi.. (the good Empi)
Bumper Guards
Search "Empi Bumper Guards"

Most VW suppliers have the repros.

Thanks Ken. Would they look good on bugs with bumpers that have towel bars? I think I've only seen them on bumpers with the small guards...

The saying is.... Beauty, is in the eye of the beholder.
I like em' with full bumpers.....but.....some may not

Granted a couple of these examples are with the padded Empi guards.... but you can get the idea.
