My back bumper has a dent where the previous owner backed into a pole...

i never used one but i wish they had them for our 4th gens, mine is a bite scuffed and has spots on it that i cant explain

I got the real deal for my 80 Caballero which is probably a little easier to find. After getting some after market molding that did not fit too well I just had to search and finally got pointed in the right direction from a few guys here and found both a front and rear bumpers that came from other cars and had been rechromed. look great. I know this post is no help to you unless you decide to try and find the real deal during that year. thanks rango:yell:

Don't get me wrong, I would love a original GM bumper, just wondering if anyone has tried one these aftermarkets and how they fit...

Never tried one, but since it's a Goodmark product I assume it's a good fit. They are liscensed by GM to reproduce parts.

I bought one from http://www.kmclassicautoparts.com/ , located near Ottawa, and am more than pleased with the fit and finish.Don't know where it was manufactured, but I like that they splashed the underside with chrome thereby minimizing the unseen rust problem in these older cars. For our eastern canadian members, Keith is a heads up guy and provides quick and guaranteed service . He is more of a Mustang fan, but has on line catalogue with a ton of elky stuff listed.

Thanks for the link, i'm also looking for a good aftermarket bumper :)

That's what I was thinking...

I bought mine from here: http://www.carpartsdiscount.com/auto/parts/81/chevrolet/el_camino/rear_bumpers/rear_bumper_without_pad_holes.html?3593=4213

Fit perfect, looks great.
