Just saw that AMD is now making 1970 CUDA front and rear rubber bumpers. Does anybody have any info on fit and finish on these? I think these would be nice for my car, and about $400 cheaper (and nicer looking) then the G.V. ones that I've recently seen.

And when you do, few and far between, they're not worth the time to fix them, as the rubber is usually torn, delaminated, deteriorated, or the studs are busted/rusted, which means you have to cut into the rubber to access the other side for welding, and if they're twisted, good luck trying to straighten them without cutting the rubber up even more....

Yes you can find used for less.

Then you pay for the repairs and then pay for expensive paint to be applied. Then you take the trouble too mount it correctly.

Then 6 months later either the repairs didn't hold or a new defect pops up.

Ask me how I know.

But the best part about the AMD repo is you will not have to deal with G.G.

Even with the parts being out of stock you are ahead of the game.

Ask me how I know.

Giving this thread a bump in case someone is able to get some bumpers and can post on how they look and fit.
