Front Bumper Covers In Houston???

Anyone know where I can get a new bumper cover for my 92? The only place I found online said they haven't had any since 2003...
Houston, TX would be best to avoid shipping.

I am referring to the actual nose of the car. Not a bra or aftermarket cover, but the actual nose of the car. From what I can tell they are the same for IROC's, Z28's and RS's from 1985 - 1992.

Well, I know that a buddy of mine (that I havn't talked to in a couple years), who is an aftermarket sales guy for body parts to body shops, said new ones are, but that was a couple years ago.

I would maybe talk to a couple of body shops about where they get prts for body shop repairs and try and track one down. Other than that the junkyard route would be the only other I can think of.

U might also try the "body" board here on TGO?

I've seen a company on Ebay that lists them. Aftermarket part. But their shipping cost seem quite high.

Re: Front Bumper Covers In Houston???

I got the one for Maxs car from Hawks thirdgen (see banner at top of page). It was a new aftermarket one and was pretty reasonable prices. The fit was acceptable although not perfect, I guess that is common with aftermarket parts. Talk to Bruce when you call. I bought the underneatch pieces as well, the honeycomb deal and the the other part, used from him.

I looked on the hawks website and they have them for $299GM or $229 aftermarket, plus shippin of course
