    King Frog,

    My bumper bar is a little rusty too, but I was just thinking of taking it off, having it sandblasted, and then powder coated (or painted). That should take care of it. Could that be an option instead of buying a new one?

    The front reinforcement bar from Parts Train does not exist

    This link is not true. I called Auto Parts Train/Parts Train and they do not have this listing. I sent the guy the link to check because I told him we had fellow VX'rs interested.

    Rusted front bumper reinforcement bar

    I wonder what Merlin will sell one for? The shipping may kill me to San Diego since it is a large part and mine is completely rusted through on the passenger side. Well see....
    I am showing the part number as:
    BEAM; FRT BUMPER --- 8-97143-534-5

    99 Astral Silver VX (176k)
    91 Porsche 928 S4 (73k)
