Does anyone know where I can source these little bumpers in this picture?

I'm race prepping my TR3B and would like to replace my big heavy front bumper with these...

Cheers.

John,
Welcome to the forum. I've noticed this car before. It has lots of neat features. Note the big rear view mirror mounted to the grab handle. I would guess that the bumpers are hand made, as I've never seen others like them. The appear (from the picture) to be pretty simple, some aluminum bar stock, a little forming, then off to the polish wheel. Looks like those are stock brackets too. Might be a better idea than the common practice of no bumper as that lower lip of the nose panel is quite vulnerable to collisions with floor jacks, battery chargers and the like.
