IMpact bumpers - Suggestions for source of good used spares

Post by Magnum »

Hi all

I'm looking for a good used original steering wheel for my 3.2 Carrera - it has a marine blue interior so dark blue would presumably be original and therefore first choice? Otherwise black?

Any suggestions (for an "out of town-er" and newbie to impact bumpers) on where I'd get such a thing at a reasonable price? Prefer UK based supplier but would consider elsewhere?

Many thanks
Magnus

Hi

Yes - that's work in progress. Actually hoping that a trusted, decent DDK source will emerge from the woodwork :) . Alternatively a sensibly priced source via DDK?

Thanks
Magnus

They are more MX5 these days but still carry a lot of Porsche spares.

Thanks Matthew

I've actually used DC Automotive before many years ago for my sold 911S - in fact that car has just won the SA concourse at Sun City, after a long restore by Tim Abbot!

I was very, vary lucky on the UK based Impact Bumper Forum and secured an original blue steering wheel within days!

Cheers
Magnus
