Rear bumper filler
I recently had my 87 GN repainted and replaced front and rear bumper fillers. I bought aftermarket fillers made of ABS plastic. The front ones were not molded very well where they attach under the headlight and cracked at the front corner joint due to pressure transferrance right after installation by the paint shop. I found OES replacements from Kirban. The right rear aftermarket filler has a hump in it and doesn't fit quite right. I am going to replace both rears as well with OES parts, though they are about $260 each! My opinion is go with OES parts, I wish I had from the start.

Has anyone used the fiberglass replacements ? If so how how did they fit and what kind of finish did they come with? I have to replace a four of mine. I seen a guy on e bay from Danko Reproductions and a set of four were $195.00 just wondering if anyone bought these before.
don't know of the specific supplier but we have used them before when people don;t want to pay the $$ for GM. They do take a little extra sanding and minor fitting work but overall form and function are pretty good. If not sure about the ones on ebay just get them from bweavy and buy with confidence, he's one of the straightest shooters on this board.
