Subject:"Hankerin' for fiberglass Carat Trim & Bumpers"
From:Don Record
Date:Thu, 17 Feb 2000 17:46:07 EST

Thats right folks, I'm going public with my "unnatural" desires to update my
87 Westi with all the late model exterior trim, including those wonderful and
easily damaged fiberglass bumpers...
I was just rear-ended last week, and thanks to the VWOA's extremely expensive
parts and the offending parties extremely "generous" insurance company I have
some cash to accomplish my mission.
Plan one was to buy the fiberglass trim kit and spoiler from the Bus Depot
but unfortunately they are no longer available.  So...
 1)  Does anyone have the bumpers and trim from a Carat/Wolfsburg for sale.
 2) Has anyone had any experience with the Winkler Kit that Vanagain offers?
 3)  Are there any other kits/ options.?

\Thanks in advance for your input...even the ones that I know will take the
time to email just to tell me that I should leave my camper with its shiny
chrome  bumpers as " the good Lord intended."
