Default Poly Bumpstops

This is pissing me off.

The bumpstops on my car have been shot to hell and then some. The dealer wants like $26 for each one. Instead of getting an expinsive piece of crap I was wondering if anyone out there knows if anyone sells Poly BumpStops for '98-'02 Trans Am's. I think they would be a hell of a lot better and last longer. What do you guys think and does anyone know where I can get them? I have looked everywhere I can think of and I cant find anything

Do they exist or am I gonna have to get by the dealer

EDIT:
I just realized I posted this in the wrong section....Might need to be moved!

Poly bumpstops are pretty harsh. The stock foam ones have enough forgiveness to not upset the car when you hit them. The polys, when you hit them don't compress that much making your spring rate closer to infinite. If this happens when going fast, it could really upset the cars balance. Just something to think about.
