    Has anyone tried replacing their big bumpers to fiberglass small bumpers?

    With bumpers so hard to find, and ridiculously priced anymore...
    I am figuring on using fiber bumpers and just painting them silver.

    Thats the best way to go.....prices for the real thing is crazy high.
    Plus you can fabricate brackets a lot easier for the fiberglass ones.....
    Purple70 painted his grey and it looks great. I painted mine the same color as the car. But either way I think fiberglass is the way to go.
