We are bringing to market a new SS 86-88 style aftermarket bumper cover that is made of the correct PUR material. the stuff that is flexible just like the OEM.

Here are some of the advance photos of the cover being shot in epoxy prime and base coated. Next photos will be of clear coating as well as installation onto Galeaii's Monte Carlo.





















 
That's a good looking piece.
I did the same bumper swap on my '86 SS with used parts except for the NOS tail light lenses. It's good news that there's a source for a new cover if one is needed.
 
That's a cool piece, I will be needing one for my SS. Who is the vendor?
 
Nice! Too bad I wasnt closer I would be willing to lend my Monte to you for testing purposes :lol: I will definatley be needing one of these soon depending on price.
 
here are some result pictures. THe cover is not what is expected so we will be making some minor changes to it.

The tail lights & quarter panel extensions I bought from a junk yard. I used one of those head light buffing kits on them. I think they look as good or better than new ones plus I only have about $50 invested in them without the new emblems.
