    sorry for the double post.. I contacted a junkyard in Montana or colorado i forget and they have one in stock. Im waiting on a text of a picture of the rear bumper from them as i sit here. She said it was in good condition and they would ship. The bumpper is 115$ and thats not including the shipping either.... idk its really close to my cap.

    Have you looked into bumper covers from an 84 or 85? They should be a lot more prevalent. And they should be the right dimensions. It will take some work to get them to fit though, as the bumper setup is a lot different... But I've always wanted to see an 82 or 83 with the facelifted, 1-piece bumpers on it.

    No i have not tried fitting any, but yes you are correct, they are more prevalent. I really hate how its just a plastic cover over a reinforcement bar on both front and rear. I will look into it though. Thank you for your suggestion!

    Well, that's how pretty much every car from the early 80's and up is.
