    Dealership is the only place I can think of, have you thought about putting a T/A bumper on? It'll look real good with your ground effects(seeing as you have the W68 apperence pkg) I'd do that if I had the ground effects, and as far as I know, I think their the same price.

      Try to contact www.speedautomotive.com
      They are an F-Body only junk yard, and they can usually provide you with anything you need. They have pretty good prices too. That's where we got my side fender from. It was in pretty good condition, and a hell of a lot less money than anyone else would charge for it.

            also the body shops wanna replace the "energy absorber" aka that styrofoam crap behind the plastic bumper. thats like $170 and its just a little piece that broke off. Id prefer to just leave it as is and save myself a $170 bucks

                      Sorry, I don't know how much we paid for the shipping. It was a while back, and I wasn't the one paying for it. I too was looking for a front bumper cover a bit ago,(we found one cheap through a friend), but before we found that one, I found a brand new Camaro bumper cover for $160.00! http://shop.store.yahoo.com/auto-body-parts/c123.html
                      Unfortunately they don't have anything for the 93+ Firebirds.

                      Defrag: here's a site which offers the absorber for $74.00 for a firebird, and $40.00 for a camaro. http://www.aftermarket-auto-parts.co...ex.html?cat=1&

                        Defrag- I payed about $400-430 new. A used one would be pretty hard to find with the exact color as yours due to oxidation and fading. You'd be paying just as much for a new one as a used one. I think I got mine for a good deal if you ask me. If you want the bird emblem on the front ASK THEM TO SHIP THAT TOO! I didn't because I thought It came w/ the bumper, but the new emblem is actually $30 if I remember. Just thought I'd let you know.
