Default Help - Bumper Buffers you can paint
Does anyone know the part number of the paintable bumper buffers? I've found 996-505-425 and 996-505-426 for right and left. However, I've heard there are different version for paint.

Thanks,

I was not aware of one. Stock black versions are just painted.

996 bumperettes were not painted from the factory. Bumper Plugs, etc. must just prep the parts you listed.
