No.

You can get repro items - There is a guy selling through ebay. Look nice, though around ?500 for the complete outfit.

Doesn't seem to have any on there at the moment.

Keep an eye out - Search in car parts, volkswagen for "Chrome Bumper" and you should find them when he lists. He does chrome or satin black ones, with or without the hangers and end caps etc…

Hes a guy called retro rabbit and hes a right thief.I contacted him about some bumper end caps and brackets but he wont do combined shipment with parts-he wants full whack for postage wether u buy 1 part off him or 5 parts,he charges u 5x postage.i think i`ll wait,i did this before and found 4 small steel bumpers for ?30.Also there is a guy in Athens who i doing endcaps etc,maybe u can try him too-he sells stuff on ebay.

retro rabbit is a guy trading from the usa, different bloke, the guy on ebay is called partsscorcerer or sumthign like that….

sorry just bought some stuff of the bloke and was a nice easy quick transaction, however

from reading up the vwvortex forum, according the majnority, apparently this retro rabbit bloke is a money pinching so and so…

im sure it must be a different bloke cos retro rabbit wudnt ship to the UK

there is also a rumour he is so tight, when he farts, only dogs can hear it? is this true?

my 2 pence.

I can vouch for RETRO RABBIT.Got my chrome bumpers from him over a year ago from the states.Delivery was spot on and reasonable price.But you can save yourself the trouble of importing them from the states and import duty as they also sell them from GERMANY.There is a german RETRO RABBIT.You can get the bumpers endcaps and brackets from them.Also the chrome door mirrors and also the chrome window winders.The GERMAN RR are also spot on i bought from them a few weeks ago.Again good delivery and reasonable p+p price.Heres a link to RR GERMANY. http://cgi.ebay.de/Golf-1-CHROM-Fensterkurbeln-youngtimer-Retro-Rabbit_W0QQitemZ230104000954QQcategoryZ72952QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem       .Hope this helps.
