The Harrington stainless steel bumpers I ordered for my TR3B c2010 online
from Vietnam arrived safely, fit perfectly, and have held up with not a bit
of change. They're non-magnetic. I'm a happy customer, TeriAnn
There's a *tiny* bit of difference in the shape of the overriders -- the
Vietnamese ones are a little more square-topped than the S-T originals, but
truly, it's barely noticed and not a fault IMO.
They come with the backsides painted black. I painted mine a wheel-silver
to be a little more like original.
