Anyone think I can find a better deal than $1179.99? That's from Sunset.

 

You can try to find a used one on ebay.

 

why not buy a used turbo bumper, and have a bodyshop get rid of the bumperette holes?
If you buy a new bumper, you will still have to have it painted, etc....

 

Did you check with Gert www.carnewal.com I got mine from him & had it shipped directly to the bodyshop. Includes the clear corners.

 

Gert is $1829.23 with today's exchange rate. The euro clear corners (bumperette delete) from Sunset are $53.31 each.

I'm getting it as a repair after getting hit the other day, so I don't really need to find a used one. However, I did look, and LAdismantlers was the only one I could find. I've heard scary things about them, AND they are more than Sunset!

 

I am looking for a used one as well...

 

Other than ascetics, why do you need a turbo cover? why not just have your body shop repair and delete the bumperette holes?

I can think of many better ways to spend $$$ on a 993....

 

Well, I need a new bumper cover as someone backed into me the other day. So, I like the look of the three holes on the turbo cover (also c2s and 4s I believe.) It's only $100 more than the stock (large oval shaped hole) one. I'm going to pay the difference and let the other person's insurance pay the rest. So it's actually the cheapest way for me to get the bumperette delete...

 

dsr or ebay has one right now

 

I was told filling in the bumperette holes would eventually crack or look like it was about to crack.

 

it depends how its done. If its done right you wont have problems.

 

Alvin I take it you had the two license plate holes filled also? I'm going to have my front resprayed sometime and would like to fill those pesky holes!

 

Atan,

What kind of brake cooling duct is on your car? Thanks in advance.

Those are Tubro "S" ducts ... Alvin will be able to advise whether they're OEM or an after-market version. I currently have an after-market set on the black cab.

I opted to keep the lisence plate holes just in case. When it came down to decision time about filling those holes, I had just gotten a no front plate ticket in my e36ic so I figured it'd be a good idea to keep the holes. My bumper was a used piece with bumperettes that were filled in too. No problems, the shop my car went to is top notch.
