    Rear bumpers van / ute

    Just wondering if anyone might have a pair of rear bumpers complete with mounting brackets etc. Reasonable condition.
    I am having issues with the full rear fouling the access hole for the spare wheel winch and am over it. Perth WA area preferred.

    I will ask a mate of mine who wrecks quite a few old vans and utes if he has any for sale Spike
    Pretty sure Rare Spares sell them new to

    I had a look at some rares ones, & they seemed a bit thin in the metal and light in weight, if it were me, I'd be getting original ones recoed as first choice.

    I had a full length rear bar on a couple of vans for years & cant remember any real issue with the spare tyre access, but I did put the bumperettes back on to sell them. Definitely like the factory look better these days
    great looking van B.T.W

    You will find a HQ Wagon bumper fits a lot better than a HJ-Z Sedan bumper. Spare wheel access shouldn't be an issue with either if the bumpers are fitted well.
    That said, if you want the factory look then factory Bumperettes are better than the reproductions for sure.

    Wow, those s/s bumpers look sweet. Way too much $ for me though. l am hoping to find reasonable / average ones though. Would be more at home on mine
