1986 Pontiac Parisienne Chrome/rubber Bumper Guards - Used on 2040-parts.com
Addison, Illinois, US
These are a pair of bumper guards I
removed from the rear bumper of a 1986 Pontiac Parisienne station wagon
because they were in the way of a trailer or bike rack. They are in
very good condition overall, solid and not rusted out anywhere, chrome
finish and rubber intact. As noted above, one of them has a broken
mounting stud. This will need to be knocked out or drilled out and
replaced - not a difficult or expensive process, but it's a little
tedious if you have to drill it. I would recommend replacing the stud
with a standard Grade-5 or Grade-8 capscrew and welding or brazing the
screw head to the bracket - it doesn't have to be a strong attachment,
because the tension will be in the other direction (toward the bumper)
when installed, although you need it to be strong enough to keep the
bolt from rotating when you attach to bumper with a nut and washer
(you'll need two nuts and two washers - not included).
Compatibility:
I do not claim that these guards will fit any Pontiac! They will
certainly fit a 1986 Parisienne wagon, and probably other GM full-size
wagons from perhaps as far back as the late 70's. They might fit some
other full-size GM models. You are responsible for determining whether these bumper guards will fit your car.

Wed, 26 Mar 2014Christian von Koenigsegg walks us round the new Koenigsegg One:1 The first sniff of the Koenigsegg One:1 came at the end of 2012 when Cars UK exclusively revealed the first details of Koenigsegg’s Megacar.

Probably the supercar star of the Geneva Motor Show earlier this month, the One:1 gets 1360 HP and weighs just 1360KG – the the world’s first 1:1 power to curb weight ratio supercar – and has 2G cornering ability and 610kg of downforce at 160mph thanks to active aerodynamics.
