I'm thinking about buying this rear bumper to update the look of my 996. Finding many in fiberglass & really didn't wanna do that...so thinking about the Dura flex route..its about $700...

its one like this one on ebay

i had a gt2 front duraflex bumper put on.

yeah its cheap, yeah its strong; but you might run into fitment issues.

For mine, it was at the point where the body shop didnt want to do it; so i ended up shaving it myself to get it to fit.

it was only then that the shop reluctantly agreed to paint it lol.
