This place has them in stock most of the time. You would just pay for the core charge if you don't have one.

I looked over his price sheet at the Charlotte Autofair last year and I believe he charges around $445 for one outright.

I assume you've seen their work? A friend of mine had a NOS bumper on the rear of his car before it was rear ended. He is looking for something of equal or better quality and fit.

Yes, they rechromed both my original front & rear bumper. I was surprised to see them at the Charlotte Autofair, he had 3 or 400 rechromed bumpers sitting out you could buy. $450 is not a bad price for an original rechromed bumper.

Time is not really an issue. We'll be dukin' it out with the adjuster anyway.


PM on the way.

The core is pretty nasty. I imagine it will just go in the trash. I'll give them a jingle.


Thanks!
