I bought my Stainless bumpers from MiniSpares and they're good. Some very slight rippling in the curves but nothing that would bother me. The mount holes in the bumperlips on the body only needed some minor tweaking to get them to fit, but then none of those were original anymore.

I use the cheaper ones from minispares and never had an issue, although car is garaged and chrome polished regularly. Also mirrors and grille use Minispares, really good genuine stuff and 5% discount
