The front bumper cover and bumper moldings look flawless. Are they NOS parts, reproductions, or originals?

the front bumper was cracked on the passenger side, but they did an EXCELLENT job repairing it. if you hadn't have known it was ****ed up in the first place, you wouldn't be able to tell. theres a VERY small corner of it where it meets the fender that is bent out a tad.

Your shop did a fantastic job! My guess was that the bumper cover and moldings were NOS factory parts. Originals is unbelievable. My vote for best paint job on the site this year. Super looking Firebird.
