Black rubber/plastic strip on front bumper?

[wally888]

Finally had a chance to look at the 91 Reatta I bought in June.<BR> It needs a new front bumper guard/strip, black.<BR> Are these all the same color when new, must be painted? Are they available? How much?

<A HREF="http://www.partsgm.com" TARGET=_blank>www.partsgm.com</A> sell them. They come a neutral color & have to be painted, so I'm told. The paint on ours has flaked off in places. Not sure why. Not too unreasonably priced, if I remember correctly.

My 6/93 parts book still lists the colors (Black STRIP, Frt Bpr Rub grp 7.831 pn 20684343) & are not listed by GMPD.

What is the part number for the strip? Back too if available

I oredered a set (front and Back) in June and they were both then available. Delivered in HUGE boxes for about $150. each Canadian. Half that price must have been for the freight! They arrive in a Matte Gray color.<BR>It's necessary to remove the entire bumper assemblies to gain access to the fasteners. Pay attention to the location of various Factory Shims as you do the disassembly.<BR>When reassembling the new rub Strips care must be taken to not overtighten the keeper nuts otherwise the contour will be distorted.
