Everyone, I need help finding a NEW front bumper cover online.
Rant Below, continue at the bottom if u chose not to read:
So, took my car in to get rust fixed on my car, and while I was at it, I wanted to replace the front bumper due to a TON of rock chips and paint coming off due to a cheap paint job the previous owner put on it (I know its been painted b/c the whole radiator is green, which means not only was it cheap, they painted it ON the car). Told the shop owner to get one WITH THE PONTIAC EMBLEM CUT OUT, and he told me it would have it. Well, he calls me up for the pre-paint inspection (as i requested), and I look at the bumper, and NO CUT OUT! The worst part is the owner didn't even notice it. So I called and called, and found a bumper with the cut out for $250...drive an HOUR, just to find out that the bumper was from a junked GA and had a bunch of cracks in it. :magus: Asked the owner how much for an OEM bumper...$450! :(
So, I'm having trouble finding a new bumper online and I need help finding one with the Pontiac emblem cutout in the front. Budget is ~$300, but anyone finding one more expensive, please post as I REALLY want to find a new bumper.
