 the meantime I have a lead on a used OEM.  Just FYI, and no slight intended
 on Go Westy, but the 1987-1991 bumper in their catalog does not fit a 1990
 Westfalia.

what was it made of?  the steel type OEM style '80-'87 wont fit a '88-'91
vanagon without trimming off the brackets that support the fiberglass bumper.
 other than that, all rear bumper brackets are the same.
