Re: [alfa] Re: (was)Overweight Alfetta GTV - fiberglass replacements for bumpers

[webb.p@xxxxxxxxxxx]

On this subject, what was available in Europe on the 75 in terms of stainless or plastic light weight bumpers?

I've seen the EVO kit on EBay a few times but it's a little rich for my blood.  Putting my money into horsepower and brakes for the time being.  If I could lose a few bumper pounds from a junkyard that would be great.

Thanks for any info.
