    There are no mounting provisions aside from the shoddy quality.

    There are also no slot cut outs when there should be. License plate area is 95 design, which conflicts with having slots (96+). Weird bumper.

    Not that I know of.

    If you’re looking for a U.S spec rear bumper, best to go with OE. I know it’s hard to find. What MY is your car?

    1997.

    Probably best to just repair mine.

    I thought I read about a company that made both front and rear
    reproductions a few years ago........but, I am most likely wrong.

    Companies have come and gone unfortunately. I am updating you on current status of who is making what.

    If you can repair your bumper, best to go that route. A new rear bumper is $5k+ from Eurospares. You’ll also need to make sure you order the 97+ US spec version, which is different from the 95’s.

    Thanks Ken.

    Mine is not that bad. The price point for the Limbotics was so attractive,
    and with free shipping I thought it was a simple prep and paint......but alas....lol

    I have one but it's a 95. If yours isn't in bad shape it shouldn't be very difficult to fix.

    Be mindful if it is not a reproduction coming from the U.S, chances are it won’t be U.S spec (side reflectors, etc..). That’s key.
