Mate GSI bumpers are quite common someone will have one on here for half the price of 1 of them **** fibreglass copys wouldn't touch 1 imo keep your eyes open in the for sale threads ad put a post up in the wanted threads!:thumb:

IIRC Bottlethroddy had/has one? I'm sure I remember him saying it wasn't too bad.

dont see whats up wiv them! they look the same, but are quite expensive,

i might get 1 because ive also been trying for ages and they are hard to get hold of.

its very hard to find one where i live in north northumberland, they are selling the copys on ebay for ?74.99, i think that is ok, as ive seen genuine ones go for 80-90.

I've got Fibreglass ones on my Nova. They're not too bad for quality, but if mint is what your after, you'll need to spend hours sanding and filling to get them like the GM ones.

GSi has a slight cut out for the exhaust, otherwise very similar to the STD one matey
