Anyone know where to get new rubber bumper siding? Just bought this car and the driver side is damaged.

Thanks

 

they are no longer being made. you have to get lucky on ebayto find them now.

 

Thats kinda what I thought. Was hoping someone had some in a spare parts bin. Or knew of something else that woud work well.

Thanks!

 

or just post in the wanted section

 

Already done that. Seems to get more 1st gen exposure here.

 

Bumper ends pop up from time to time and are not that hard to find. Finding good ones with out scrapes, gouges or broken mounting studs is slightly harder. Jim at Rotary Restorations normally has a few of these around. He has a store on eBay. Expect to see asking prices between $40-$70 for nice ones.

 

I got a complete front bumper and rear bumpers with both rubbers and the marker lights... I really want to sell the whole front bumper complete but I'm thinking $200 for complete front bumper. But then again its in my 'I might want that sometime pile' LOL but I doubt I'll ever find a nice SA again. To further complicate things shipping would be bad, its HEAVY.... Of course Kansas isn't that far away... I'm southern Indiana.

Try 'frodogray' on ebay... He's higher than crap on his prices (wanting like $5 for a single bolt) LOL but he's got EVERYTHING...

If not and no body else does, get back at me.

 

One of the reasons he's still got everything is that few people can afford his prices, lol. Whatever the traffic will bear, right?

 

Yeah he's a good 'last' resort. Lol

 

You get what you pay for. I've bought a couple of items off him and even tho it cost a bit higher
I was not disappointed in the quality of the used parts. He's pretty good about describing the
condition accurately.

 

True on all counts; You do get what you pay for with him, in that what you get is what he offered.

It's just a shame from a buyer's perspective that he knows the value of his inventory! (lol)

 

1979 RX-7 600 bucks for whole car instead, let the race begin :P

p.s. not my car.

 

Where is Rotary Restorations located?

 

ebay

 

He's in Fairfax, Virginia, United States based on what his ebay auctions have on them for location.

 

I hate it when that happens!

But as covered, either post a WTB ad in the 1st Gen Classifieds or wait for an SA part out in that section. eBay is another good source too though.

I hear you though, a thread gets more exposure here than it does in the 1st Gen Classifieds.
