Ditto with the alloy wheels.

Both Alloy wheels and power mirrors were optional in 1986, so either of those may appear on this model. The fiberglass bumpers appeared first on the 1987 Vanagon GL WLE and they were silver metallic. In 1988 all the Vanagons had the fiberglass bumpers, Vanagon GL and Camper GL in black, but only the WLE version had silver ones and matching silver "rocker" panels along the sides.
