Bumper Plugs
 
Anywhere other that bumperplugs.com to get some painted bumper plugs? Are theirs the best quality? $35 shipped for those little things seems a little steep...

Your dealer has them for about $30 list, less if you wrangle a discount.

I too balked at $35 for a couple of plugs. I found some small nylon plugs at the local ACE Hardware for $.27/each. They will need some trimming to fit correctly. Color them with your touch-up paint.

There's a vendor on eBay that lists them pre-painted for $5.00 opening bid. They do not list the shipping cost (which ended up being $12.00.....absolutely rediculous). They showed up in about a week. The color was perfect and they fit like a glove. The quality of the paint was on par with spray painting them yourself, but overall I'm pleased.

any advice for avoiding $250 on painted bumperettes?

I wish....I haven't found anyone beside bumperplugs.com for the painted bumperettes. I really want a set too.

My plugs were free.

Friend painted my humps and I saved the can of unused paint. He had a draw with plastic plugs and I found 2 that fit.

Did your friend sand them (bumperettes) smooth before painting them?
