    There seems to be a LOT of folks manufacturing/repackaging/reselling bumper fillers - the section that goes between the body and the bumper in case my terminology isn't correct.... At any rate, have any of you folks purchased these???

    How did they fit???

    Easy to prep and paint???

    Holes drilled correctly???

    I'm going to purchase a set for my '85 Le Sabre Collectors Edition coupe and really hate to make $400+ buying mistakes!

    Please share which you bought and details of your experience; I'm not opposed to paying top dollar but really want to receive first rate for top dollar!

    Thanks folks!

    Back in 2002 I purchased fillers for my 87 Turbo T from a company called Musselmans out of Texas. They were ABS plastic and according to my body guy they fit better than any fiberglass products he worked with and didn't require a lot of work on his part.

    Thanks so much!

    I believe that the source I purchased from is the manufacturer of these - at any rate they both use the same illustrations. Hopefully they will work out and I can improve the looks of 'Goldie' 1000% by installing them!
