There's a chap over the water, that bought all the remaining stock, so they are out there.

Prodrive sold their stock about 11 years ago for peanuts via eBay. I forget what I paid for an estate spoiler, but it was significantly less than the cost of painting it. Anyone in a position to bulk buy the bumpers will have done well.

What sort of money are these bumpers going for now? ::)

Good question well presented...
-
The towing eye covers are even rarer.
-
The pity is that all the ones I have seen are wavy between the headlights, a design flaw with not enough stiffness built into the mould at that point. Hardly noticeable on a silver or white car but annoying on dark colours. I have seen fibreglass replica towing eye covers offered, again in NI, where all Omegas seem to go to die.

Didn't see a single one in Belfast...
Re the bumpers, they were effectively a factory spec part rather than an aftermarket add on, which might raise a question re the authenticity of them...
There was someone on here trying to pass off remoulded fibreglass copies of the Irmscher stuff as genuine >:(
Sure the fit of the Irmscher body kits could be questionable, but they were NEVER fibreglass ;D obviously being made from the sane materials as the factory parts.

I have the irmscher bumper on and I'm not really a fan if I'm honest.

It looks better with 18"s and the side skirts 8)

I do think they are pretty ugly if I'm honest - just my opinion though....
-
I agree. :y
-
I think the colour can make a big difference as well, black cars don't show the design as much as silver cars, I guess the black grilles highlight the design more on the lighter colour cars.
As Al points out, I think you really need the whole package - Irmscher wheels, lowered Eibach / Steinmetz / Irmscher suspension, Full body kit. Irmscher Exhaust. it then works a lot better.

I have a stock facelift front bumper in Nocturno blue if anyone wants it? :)
