Del Sol OEM Replacement Parts
Does anyone have any personal experience with buying an OEM replacement front bumper for a 95 Del Sol. I bought one from Certi-fit (http://www.certifit.com) and it did not fit on right; it was approx. 6 inches too wide. Has anyone ever bought one off of ebay, like this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ZWDVW. If anyone has any experience with buying replacement body part for a del Sol your input would be appreciated. I am not looking to spend like $200+ for a bumper from a dealer or Majestic Honda; I just want a bumper that will fit and is relatively inexpensive (in the OEM style, no ricey body kit bumpers please).
Thanks
Thanks

Re: Del Sol OEM Replacement Parts (solstice)
Out of curiosity is your innner bumper bent in any way shape or form? and is the styrofoam on there properly? I bought one from them and that was all bent up on mine and I thought it was close enough and thro my bumper off by a good 6inch's as well. Nothing the trustly sledge dident improve untill I got my new one from certifit for $22.

I also needed a bumper cover when I bought my delsol. A friend of mine offered me an aftermarket bumper which fit horribly. I decided to wait it out and found a an OEM bumper from the junkyard for $50. OEM is the way to go, if you can wait it out and shop around, try.

I agree OEM is better quality but my certifit one worked out alright once I got the bumper support fixed. The OEM one wasn't as touchy about that. I think its because the aftermarket ones cant be exactly like OEM for some copyright issues so there off slightly.

I dont think the inner bumper is bent. I do not have any styrofoam on there at all. I currently have a body kit bumper on my car. I have been looking in the junkyards but there are not too many Sol's out in them. I guess i will just have to wait it out and find an oem one because i really dont want a crappy looking/fitting bumper, and i guess none of the replica's are gonna fit 100%. Well, thanks a lot guys for your input.
