Same old story, chrome bumpers are VG but pad are rusted and shot.
Are there any reasonably priced pads out there ? $700 per pair !!!!! Or is there any alternatives ? Maybe cut the pads off of some fiberglass bumper ? thanks, bob |

Fiberglass bumper tops are the way to go.

Fiberglass bumper tops are the way to go. Yep- I don't got 'em, but it is a great solution. Hopefully someone will respond with vendors name for you. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Call Dave at GPR http://www.gprparts.com/
While they are expensive, the pair (front & rear pads) should be a bit more reasonable from them. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

I got a brand new set off of ebay for $325.00. I only had to use the rear, because I found a NOS front bumper w/ pad. The rear looks so good, people don't know it's fiberglass. I will sell the front f/g pad for $100.00 plus shipping. It's new, still in the box.
