Default iRoc Bumper advice

Hi, I want to replace my stock front and rear bumpers for an IRoc style look. I have a 77 narrow body, GT Racing looks like they have decent parts, any advice on a good trusted brand to go for?? Thanks.

Been shopping for similar myself; touched the EB Motorsports product locally and was impressed. Owner said fit was better than any previous product he's dealt with for his other cars. FWIW.

I had factory IROC bumpers on my 74 IROC tribute. They were very thin glass and considerably smaller than any aftermarket glass one I have seen.

I just got front and rear pieces from EB motorsports. Very pleased so far. Have not done anything other than hold them up to the car so far but looks like it will be a very nice fit. I am not experienced with aftermarket fiberglass parts but I did have my painter by the house and he said he was very impressed with them.

The issue with aftermarket figerglass parts is the attachment points ... i bought front and rear fiberglass bumpers from Patrick Motorsports when i installed
a 3.6 in my car and i had to relocate all the attachment points on both bumpers because they were way off by a large margin !

You`ll be really lucky if all the attachments points line up.On another note , i purchased some fiberglass parts from CCP Fabrication in Florida
and the quality of their work is outstanding !
I believe they offer Iroc bumpers as well ...

Is GT the company that has the narrow iroc rear? If I remember there was only one company that had it, the rest are for SC fitment.

Here is a thought, why not buy steel long nose front fenders and get the GT fiberglass hood that uses the stock 1977 latch location. Make your car a classic long nose backdate without cutting anything up.
Backdate the front and rear bumpers with firberglass from GT.
