1996 Bumper (cover?)
Hi there. Well, I scraped my bumper on a post the other day with my 1996 del sol. I have only had this car for less than a month, so it is quite depressing. Anyways, I am having a hell of a time trying to find a replacement bumper for this car. For stock bumper, I can only find covers that fit 92-95 del sols. The only 1996 bumpers I seem to run accross are all aftermarket. Now, I would prefer to get a stock bumper, but I guess if I have to buy an aftermarked bumper, I guess I better start looking. Anyone know where I can get a 1996 del sol front bumper cover? (prefferably stock)

Even better, would one of these work on my '96 del sol, even thought i has auxillery lights and says it is for 93-95?

Re: 1996 Bumper (cover?)
the 96/97 fronts are very rare, and usually come from a dealership and go for about $300. The ones on ebay for the 93-95 are the exact same, but beware.. you get what you pay for. My car came with a cheap ebay front bumper cover, and ugh... it fits like shit. Best bet is to hit up junkyards.

Hmm, ok. Would those 93-95 del sol bumper covers on ebay work on my '96 del sol? If they do, I know I would have to buy some fog lights, so that isn't a big deal. I'm just wondering if it would fit/work.

as far as I know...93-5 should fit...
how bad is the scrape? I've got some on my front bumper...but in some areas it's all cosmetic, if I sanded down the bumper and repainted it, it'd be fine. if it doesn't get as far as plastic, you're fine with the one you have.

Re: 1996 Bumper (cover?)
the fit is the same for 93-95 or 96/97, but I'm telling you... you'll be pissed that you paid around $150 shipped when you get it and it fits like shit.

I will take a picture of the damage tomorrow if I have time and post a screenshot. Mainly it is 2 small cracks that a lil putty and touchup paint might be able to fix. But, I personally like the fog lights anyways, so I dunno. If I get this bumper to look pretty good after I'm through messing with it, I might not worry about a new bumper.
