Default need help for rear bumper

HI,

I'm getting a 2004 Z06 Z16 lemans edition, as I live in England (UK), the company who import the car did the rear lite conversion and pierced some holes in the bumper to add some indicator.

I want to chnage the bumper to a original or after market, which one are good looking??? any picts???

Is it easy to change or do I need to have the job done by a mechanic???

Where is the best place to get one in USA???

I'm worried about the colour, is it easy to match the colour??

is tghere any way to buy the bumper allready paint from a part shop in USA??? in this case I would just have to put it on the car.


Thanx

Jimmy

Tigershark and Spectre Werks are two popular choices. May want to try a search on this site for those to see if you see something you like.
Sorry I can't address your other questions (perhaps the retailer of the facia could assist).

Here are a few places to check out. Unfortunately you will need to get any of these painted. It needs to be done with your car in order to match the color. Even though yours is Le-mans blue there is variations between. Also read closely on rear fascias. Some are fiberglass and others are polyurethane like your stock fascias. Others require a specific exhaust system. I hope this helps.
