1954-67 VW Beetle Bumper Bracket Mount - Rear Left

Rear Left Bumper Bracket Mount Panel for VW Beetle

• Reproduction of the factory rear left inner fender panel
• Forms the left side of the engine compartment and bumper mount area
• Mounting surface for the rear fender and bumper bracket
• Requires trimming and welding for proper installation

The VW rear left bumper bracket mount panel is the sheet metal section located next to the left side of the rear apron. It forms the rearmost portion of the inner fender well where the fender bolts on and also serves as the left side of the engine compartment. This replacement panel requires trimming and welding to achieve a correct factory-style fit during installation.

Previous accidents and body work can cause poor fitment of new bumpers and other sheet metal items. It is very important to test fit the bracket before painting it. This will allow any necessary body work to either the body or the fender to be done BEFORE painting.

NOTE: All body metal parts are sent with a black, sprayed, rust inhibitor. This is NOT paint or a primer. It must be removed prior to applying primer to the sheet metal.

This includes bumper brackets, fenders, floor pans, aprons, deck lids ETC. Because this material is not a primer, it is not unusual for scratches to be found in this material. This does not affect the sheet metal as this material MUST BE REMOVED, thus also removing any scratches in the process. Of course dents would be considered excessive. All sheet metal is carefully inspected prior to shipping for dents. Any sheet metal that is received dented must be presented to the shipping carrier for a damage claim, REGARDLESS OF THE CONDITION OF THE BOX.
