I thought I read on here that the part is not available at dealers... but some yards still have them no doubt. I've had good success in the past, buying parts from Hawks:

Yeah the new ones at hawks are also discontinued. I dont want a used one so I dont have to deal with the BS. On a good note I just picked up a bran new front bumper off ebay last night for $150. Its never been used and still in the original box .

No body has them. There all discontinued and going quick. Finding stuff for 82-84 Z's is getting harder and harder. I just saw on ebay the same front bumper I just got going for $325 and they want $150 just to ship it. Crazy

Re: 82-84 Z28 front bumper covers ?

If you have one thats just in rough shape (cracks, etc) you can have it 'rebuilt'.... look in the phonebook or call a few body shops and ask who rebuilds plastic bumper covers locally. Theres always a place that does, and the prices are usually cheaper than buying new. Couple hundred bucks usually, but thats totally stripped, fixed and bodywork, and primed.
