Still valid.
My search was not successful so far. What I saw was mostly ready to scrap.
Looking for a nice used OEM set w/o twisted/bended brackets. Straight with no dents.
If new paint required...ok.
thx

fwiw Ralf, replacement impact strips are slightly different than OE strips (at least they were on mine). It could be a "maker" thing, I do not know but I would assume with your build date and location would be the same as mine. The details are subtle but when you know they differ, you cannot unlearn it. I'm saying if you find originals with original strips still in good condition, you are better off than later service replacements or aftermarkets.

Yes, exactly. But Bob unfortunately is not shipping to GER as far as I know. Or Bob?
And these are 68 if I'm not mistaken (because of the rubber conus). Not sure if 67 had those?
But doesn't matter so much.

Yes ,67 had the cones too but not sure if it was a plant thing or MFG thing. All of the service ones I have seen did not have the hole for the cone bumper. If the hole is there there should be a cone bumper to fill it. I just know that they are typical on 67 (SJ) and 68 (Metuchen) Shelby's. I have seen some on cars that did not have the holes for the cone bumpers but I am not sure if they had been replaced and didn't think enough to correlate the plant information to correlate a pattern. FYI the pair I had are sold.
