    Just thought I’d ask,,,,

    I’m guessing finding a good used OEM bumper will not be easy ? What are the aftermarket’s like ?

    I'm looking for an OEM for my '03. Having trouble finding anything of decent quality, so I'd be interested in what the pro's have to say. Ordered a Taiwanese one off of Ebay, but promptly returned it as it was all scratched up (under the primer) and seemed pretty chincy.

    Did either of you check car-part to see what's available in your area?

    What magic is this? Thanks for the new site. I just checked and didn't find anything for my '03, but will be frequenting that site in the future.

    The oem ones were tinny to begin with, buying a Chinese chrome one isn’t that big of a step back
