Is this also a year thing. Our 2002 has the body colored front bumper and it does not look like it sticks out as far.

What a bargain! ( https://www.heritagepartscentre.com/uk/ ) This one is actually tempting. I could buy all 5 they have for the same overall cost on shipping.

I found this one for about 50 Euros. Put it in my cart and calculated shipping...

Kind of a stretch but I don't suppose you have any Euro bumper skins left do you? A couple of owner's ago my van kissed a curb and the bumper cover is fubarred. I've been planning to replace it and I can't get this Euro look out of my head.
Any good sources for these if you don't have any available?
I always thought the long bumper was just a convenient place to set your beer while looking at the engine...

Nice work! I really like the look of that bumper. Now I know why the European fog lights I had purchased were too short to use the factory mounts and reach the front of my North American bumper.

Thanks Josh, pictures always help! Nice van.
I am planning on getting a few euro covers around the first of the year. You will be ready to coat another one by then anyway, right?  |

| Wow, thanks Rob. You even answered my question about the carrier that I was wondering but didn't ask. Thank again, that was very helpful. |
