yeah, i purchased them.  you may be able to get a list member discount
BTW...
The front ones fit really nice but you'll need to drill a hole in your bus
to hold it in place- no big deal really.  If you have the crome trim on
the rim of your wheel well it will get in the way.  Both front and back
have the VW emblem but the rear ones have the emblem painted white while
the front ones are black.

The clips to hold the mud flaps on suck.  I made some clips out of some
channel (shape of U) and then tapped a hole on one side to screw in a set
screw. Maybe you'll figure out a better way to mount them.

The front flaps kick butt for keeping the side of your bus snow and mud
free- basicially the main reason i put them on!  They seem pretty durable
and can handle a big build up of snow/ice/mud.
Cheers
