Bumper from c5 west or not
I saw a fiberglass rear bumper (91-96 style) black in color (not painted) without the rear tail-light holes being cut out.
My question is whether this is a bumper that is sold by C5 west or a higher quality manufacturer. Are there any tell-tale signs. This bumper is being viewed through digital pictures.
I do not want c5west products based on comments made on this web site.

I have a C5West rear bumper that I got from a guy because it had a chip out of it and they sent him a new one. Even though I have it on my car now in primer, I would not buy another one. The fiberglass strands are dry and the fit is horrible. The panels are not even straight.
I know you already stated that you didn't want to go with them anyway, but in my opinion, get the real deal from Eckler's or MAD and get it right the first time. Or get OEM if your ok with Urethane.
