Default 75 Bumpers

I was wondering if anyone has found a company that sells quality replacement parts for my 75 vette. I need a rear bumper cover and possibly a front bumper cover. I know that some companies are making a flex fit but I am not sure if I that is a good product? I am trying to keep the car original. Any help would be appreciated.

i would definately recommend replacing the urethane bumpers with fiberglass ones. I got mine from mid-america, they need to be worked a little (as to be expected) but fitment is overall good.

Default Vader Vette 1975

Did the front and the back used toledo pro fiberglass Flex Fit Bought both at the same time and saved money . the front looked like stock the back had some slight bulging but with a hair dryer and an extra bolt hole they now both look stock. They are why I call myself the Vader Vette Cause the front and Back Of my silver car is black It looks cool.Im draging my feet on Painting them because i lke It.And A quick tip buy the ratchet wrench that fits the retainer bolt that holds the bumps on it makes the JOB soooo much easier. also PB Blast the bolts first.I cut my old bumpers off so the retainers and everything were not bent. they went back on like they came off.I used the old re-tainers but I love to wire wheel my finger tips off.(just kidding)Hope this helps the front took 3 time longer than the front .Pm me if you have ANY questions.

All the aftermarket providers carry bumper covers. Pick your favorite vendor and order what you want. Some folks go with replacement urethane, other go with tru-flex.
