    No bones about it IMO. That seems like a reasonable price if the quality is OK.

    For the younger readers who might not know the term "Dagmar", they are actually artillery shell shaped appurtanences mounted to the front of the car grille or bumper. Here is a photo of a Dagmar...

    And here is a Life magazine photo of Dagmar herself showing why these bumper additions were called Dagmars...
