Empi 3447 Vw Bug Exhaust Manifold Heat Riser Block Off Plates. Pair
WELL MADE

Nice pieces. I made a few modifications that I feel improves them. I trimmed off a significant portion of the flat stock so it conforms better to the shape of the door and looks less bulky. I also replaced the passenger side mirror with a convex one which is a great improvement. Finally, I painted them with bedliner for durability.
