I could use the lowest cost solution to oem style bumper tops and filberglass is totally fine with me.

James has been making these for me. There have been some supply issues, but I'm told that I will have more in the next 2 weeks.
They are thicker than the others that were on the market, and had 5 sold mounts on the front as well as the 4 on the rear.

After searching for a bumper top for the rear I realized I could change out both bumpers to fiberglass for about the same price as 1 bumper top. I haven't done it yet since my 911 decided to start having personal problems, so my focus has been on that, but I'd be down to buy fiberglass bumper tops! I have a front bumper top I'd loan to make the mold.

This company makes fiberglass bumper tops for front and rear.
I used their rear bumper top and it looks just fine.

Happy Thanksgiving!

good to hear you guys have sorted this out.
i'll keep my eyes open.
$650 per car for rubber is way outside my budget : ( nice product though.

i might have some used ones for reasonable $. I'll check tomorrow.

May want to checkout the Black Friday sale.
But yes I have back orders that I'll be filling and will have stock shortly. The ones James has made are thick enough they don't flex and are excellent quality, only a little slow to make them.

i'll hold out for fiberglass, maybe even for next years black Friday sale, as I need 2 sets : ( and they are primarily asthetic for me. fiberglass imperfect seconds would be even better for my needs.

thanks

I know your just looking for the bumper top. But I've got a complete fiberglass bumper, with the top molded in. Would that work for you?

I think I want to keep steel bumpers for the safety value, in case things go awfully wrong. though I drive my car like granny on sunday, generally.

Glad to hear, been waiting a long time for the "supply issue" to be worked out.
