          PZ, plastic bumpers are heavier. Also the rear will need modification to fit early model cars. The front you'll still have to cut the tow hooks off. Much easier for early model cars to go euro, and it also looks really good.

          Best of luck for3ver! Currently trying to source a rear myself.

                Hahaha, YEAH JASON!

                PZ, it's proving to be kind of a pain to find a euro rear, yeah. I guess it's all about what you want to do. I'm probably going to keep it classic and find a euro rear and a rear valence, but by all means if you want a plastic rear bumper, go for it. Just know that it will take some modification to get it to fit.

                  you can go plastic and look like all the other cars on the road, keep the db and have a lot of people think their ugly, or go euro and still have functional metal bumpers while looking awesome and unique. pz is new and needs a straightening out.

                  OP good luck! i want a set too eventually.

                        PM Kronus in northern Clai., he's had one of those for the longest for sale, 90% clean. Noone with a euro early valance to want to pick it up from him.
