Trouble finding a replacement Rear Bumper Cover (for a '78)

[CDesperado]

After several hours of Google and scanning through about a dozen different vendors, Im still having trouble finding a replacement rear bumper cover.

Now, I'm wondering if I am using the wrong "term" in my searches. Can someone tell me the "proper" name - since "rear bumper cover" ain't working too well.

I figured this would be pretty easy to fine... it's just the urethane bumper cover on the rear of a 1978 Camaro.

Yeah, that's it... but its fiberglass. I found a couple of these, but Im a little concerned about fiberglass since it isnt as flexible as urethane.

I guess the urethane ones aren't available, even in repro ?

I may take a closer look at the one I have and see if I can repair it. (Augh!)

Thanks for the help though.

Email sent. Thanks.

I started reading through old posts here going back to 2006 (should have done that first)... looks like this is a common problem. (sigh)
