    They are rubber-like and not nice and flat anymore. I'd like new ones, they don't have to be flexible, 3D printed maybe?

    I can get an original looking fiberglass bumper made but there’s just not enough interest

    I don’t know if anyone that sells reproduction but I found an original set at Gentry Lane Lotus out of Toronto Ontario Canada a few years ago. OEM NOS still in the package. They use to be a Ferrari dealer in the 80’s early 90’s I guess, they still have ALOT of pets from that era.

    That part evolved from the early 308s up to your version.

    So being relativel "year specific" I would call TRutlands. FerrParts out in Cali, write to GT Car Parts in AZ, let the wreckers know you need a good pair!!

    I'm thinking used parts will be the same as mine, somewhat wavy. I don't want to convert to Euro rear bumper due to the "diaper" and well, I actually appreciate the extra rear protection as I park it in parking lots and on streets. I'm now seeing that it's not a priority for most to have new ones, so probably no repros out there. Mine aren't that bad, I was just hoping for "perfect
