This is a new bumper kit for the Mercedes Pagoda W113 (230SL/250SL/280SL) from 1963 - 1971. The kit includes front and rear bumper halves and front center joining strip. The bumpers are stainless steel and hand finished.

Stainless steel was chosen for the following reasons:

1. never corrodes(rust proof); grade 304/1,4301/7
2. in case of dent or damage unlike chrome plated steel it does not require stripping and rechroming
3. stainless steel allows for easy repair and repolishing in the hand of a professional
4. it's a lot tougher than chrome plated steel bumpers

The bumpers are finished to a high mirror polish, just like chrome. The back of bumpers are acid etch primed and painted with ICI two pack paint in a cream tone.
