Default bumpers

Hi

I was lucky enough to get a set of group harrington bumpers via fleabay.I had seen them on there and had messaged the person advertising them. He contacted me,the deal was done and I believe I received one of the very first sets produced. This was several years ago and I paid £875 including postage which was tracked as they came from china!! Fantastically made in stainless steel they really look the part.
I'd looked at real ones but didn't like the price tag. Second hand ones nearly always needed rechroming and that's an expense these days too. I didn't like the alley deon ones as they looked too chunky and the fibreglass ones looked crap!!
I was in the process of making my own copied from a set of real ones when the harrington came up, and when they arrived they were if anything they looked better made than the originals!
