GM bumper covers discontinued! Where to buy new?
I was informed by my local dealership that the Camaro berlinetta front bumper covers were discontinued. 
Anyone know where to buy new ones at a reasonable price? Local junk yards are a lost cause.
The cheapest one I found was from a company called Ecklers, but I don't know the quality of their bumper covers. Are they made of urethane like the stock ones, or just a saggy rubber replacement?
Anyone have a good (non sagging) front bumper they wanna sell?
Thanks,
Jesse

I have a spare red SC/Berlinetta style bumper cover used. Its in good condition, no rips or tears as far as I can see, just some minor chipping in the paint (but you're going to strip and repaint to match anyways right? So it shouldn't matter). You could also try ebay, they pop up from time to time.

Thanks for the offer. There's a guy down the road with a thirdgen rotting away in his yard. I'm gonna go talk him out of it if I can. If that doesn't work, I'll have to try something else.

hawks says they have both GM and aftermarket, but with no mention if the GM part has been discontinued or not.

As soon as I exhaust the local possibilities, I will let you know. Most places that still have them need to ship them truck freight because of the size, so I'm trying to avoid these high shipping charges by locating one nearby. (within driving distance). That guy down the road from me has one, but after close inspection, I found it to be worse than the one I already have, however, there are still more local possibilities for me to exhaust. Thanks again for the offer. I'll let you know.
