It looks like I’ll be needing a new front bumper top because the fastening nuts are rusted solid to the studs that go into the rubber. I’m looking for feedback from those who have purchased reprops. I know figment was problematic in the past. Please let me know your experience.

No we are not. The AA ones are less rubber and more pf a had plastic feel. It's probably a hybrid, but not a pure rubber. They look good. We had initial issues with fitments due to variations. It was small, but it matters. Also helps that we now include the rubber spacers that we originals used. It sets them at the correct height so that the ends do not push out.
Another part we never knew existed, but wound up making. Attached image(s)
