Vanagon Bentley pages 63.2 and 63.3 show some details for the fiberglass
bumpers and air dam. It doesn't show the welded on parts, just the
hardware and any pieces you can remove and replace.

Anyways, I am trying to find the correct hardware list for the bumpers and Air Dam.  I looked in Bentley and online hoping to find the hardware list.  Does any know of anyone that sells the correct Bumper and Air Dam hardware? or where I can get a list of what is needed?  The Body Shop that did all the work does not specialize in VWs so if I can provide them the proper hardware, installation will go smoothly and it will still be Genuine.  I have given up trying to find new alloys so I am going to run with the original 14".  I am wondering what size tire would fill the wheel wells to get the proper look.  My Van will not be doing any off-roading,
