Collectors Edition Rear

I'm trying to get a hold of a 02 Trans Am Collectors Edition Bumper. Was wondering if anyone could post a site with them or know anyone that might have one for sale.

A collector edition bumper is the same bumper that you have, you just have to paint yours.

I had mine painted. A dealer did it for free....only cause someone hit my bird. I had mine done flat black which I think looks great on a red bird.

that seems really high considering all they are doing is blackening a small part. not like they had to blend.

No, the only difference between the original CETA's and the DIY CETA's is most people mask off to where the intended body line that makes the section is painted, where on the original CETA that indention was not painted.
