Default Rear bumper covers?

Hi guys, I have a short timeline for a rear bumper cover for the Z in our stable. It was hit (lightly) and we want an aftermarket bumper- something hot, but urethane- no fiberglas. I reached out to Bulletproof Auto (370Tune) and he has NONE stateside- they make to order! Unreal- in all my days of manufacturing, I've never heard of such a thing as 3 months wait time! Any ideas? I need to reply to the body shop today.
Thanks, Bill

I will check the For Sale section- as you can tell I'm not on the site nearly as much as I should to know my way around. The items you listed are nice but stock, and we really like the Amuse rear ends- such a drag they cant get their act together.

Most of the JDM stuff is going to have a pretty substantial wait. Even if it's not made to order, it's going to have to be shipped and clear customs. Most domestic retailers aren't going to stock something that large and expensive for such a small market as the 370 crowd. It just doesn't make sense from a business standpoint to have that much warehouse space and cost tied up in something with a relatively low demand. It really sucks, but it's what we have to deal with being a niche market.

Wish i had talked to you before placing the call to the body shop! We ordered the OEM replacement- but in part due to the fact Insurance is footing the bill for the rental car. What paint code is that? We have a K34 paint code, and really like your rear end (HAHA), so still interested even after the body shop is done. We also want the high wing option as well! CT is not far from us in So NH, if you dont mind pm'ing, I have some questions about the fitment.
