Brethren, I'm having a hell of a time finding a front bumper for my 2013 427 convertible (Night Race Blue) and I need to put the bat signal out. Long story short, deer jumped in front of me, spun out and caused $15k in damage to my Vette (Geico took care of the bill). Everything is put back together except for the front bumper.... The OEM front bumper is discontinued. FML. Having the stock wide body makes the hunt that much more interesting. I just ordered what I thought would work however, it didn't come with the mounting tabs for the fog lights and none of the holes are drilled out. Came with some lame *** mesh inside. I shipped it back and bla bah blaaahh. I'll even put the fiberglass one on if I have to at this point. The car has been in the shop for 3 MONTHS!!!! I'm dying over here without my LS7 in th garage. I don't need it painted but anything that fits will work.

There's one on Facebook in Hayward. I just messaged him and he said it's still available for I think $600.
PM me as it won't let me post a link to his Facebook profile.
Dude... thank you guys so much. I hit up that guy in Hayward and sure enough he had one. I picked it up on Saturday. The shop should be painting as we speak.
You rock! I appreciate your help with my bumper saga. I think I'm good to go now. Picked up a used one over the weekend. I tried one of those bumper cover style that you sent links to but I recently found out (the hard way) they don't come with the mounting tabs for the fog lights. Just mesh inside covering the grill and fog light holes. , They also don't have any of the holes drilled out to mount it to the car. I had to send it back and of course it got damaged in the shipping process. Without my Vette in my garage the whole world has gone crazy!! Must get her back soon for the sake of humanity and my bank account.
