Default New 1980 bumpers??

I want to buy some new flexiglass front and rear bumbers for my 80 vette. I do not want fiberglass and can't really afford the origanal urithane. Do you guys have any recomendations on who to buy from. You know, best fit-best price kind of deal. Thanks Lou

I JUST GOT TRU-FLEX BUMPERS FOR MY 75 FROM WILLCOX(http://www.yankeelady.com/willcox/) THEY ARE MORE FLEXIBLE THAN FIBERGLASS AND ARENT WAVEY LIKE URATHINE. IF YOU HAVENT DEALT WITH WILLCOX GIVE THEM A TRY IN MY OPINION THEY ARE EXCELLENT THEY CAN GET YOU ABOUT ANYTHING YOU NEED AT A DISCOUNT.THINK I PAID ABOUT $520.00.

CAPS LOCK ON!
Anyway....I have the true flex ones on my 74.
I purchased them from Bairs. http://www.bairs.com
They were manufactured by Toledo Pro Fiberglass. I was very satisfied with the fit of both the front and rear units.
