Stainless bumperguards with hole for tail pipe?

Have anybody seen this?

I have a NOS pair marked "OKANO Stainless".

Sounds like they would: interfere with routine maintenance; place impact stress on the weak, central part of the bumper and generally duplicate factory bumperettes- thus, requiring fronts to match.

Are you sure they are not for a later Porsche 356? Yes, get post a picture.

ORKANO Stainless it is. I have a pair of NOS stone protectors also, and they are also in stainless of the same brand.

I dont have a bug, so I had to improvice a bit. Wink

thanks for posting the photos Smile


If you are interested in selling them please let me know.

I would also be interested in the pair of the gravel guards - again if you ever decide to sell them.

Cheers

Paul
