He says ' Don't use repo parts. '..  *L*    but buy his $500 part instead?  *L*
I'm glad I have the original one, if I didn't, I'd do without OR buy a repro... :)

I've had this fuel line bracket for a while however it's not correct for my 4C build date Z. For those of you who have an original, is this a real one or a re-pop?

Seem to recall something like 'stamp right' on it, but maybe there were several suppliers?

Tim, what prompted me to post the question was the manufacturer's stamp <Pr> on the eBay listed bracket appears to be the same stamp on the bracket I posted.

Lloyd,

The P over the R looks like the Paragon Reproductions logo...

Interesting observation Paul. There are clear similarities between the Paragon logo and bracket stamp however the font, stylized "R" and surrounding brackets are formed differently. I checked their web site and couldn't locate a bracket like this and its not clear if they are an agency vendor or also commission parts manufacturing.  I'd like to get to some closure.
