As the title says. I'm looking for the heat shield, bolt and hanger etc like the one at the top in the pic. Not sure i'll have much luck on this one :(

Jezzer has managed to get the heatshield off VW classic parts, I managed to get a really decent 2nd hand set. Also the top brackets are obsolete now but Yomp is looking to get to get a few sets made up. If you have a look at my post a couple down from this one your see.

They also do the long bolts and the tubes for the bolts. Got them via VW Heritage. No top brackets to hold them to the downpipes but Yomp is thinking of getting these made.

Just placed my order with VW Heritage. A bonus is VW Classis Parts are also producing the top brackets so bought the full assembly.... Happy days.

Interesting was told they weren't. I'd still be interested Yomp.

I'm confused now!
Does this mean that the brackets that bolt onto the 6 bolt flange are no longer available?
Where did Jinjar get his from then?

I'm confused aswell. Told the guy someone bought the whole lot yesterday and he is sure that the brackets are not available.

I bought the last OEM front bumper back in 2008! - Unless someone knows different!……

Was just going to ask if you were back up for getting some made.

Man, only been off site a day or so but this seems to have sorted itself out. Luck for us jezzer but also lucky for everyone else that yomp can make some if needed. Happy all round  :)
