Default Bumper Guards

I havent been able to find a source for replacement rubber for one of my damaged bumper guards. I'm guessing they arent available repro, and need to find NOS or good used guards, any suggestions?

If its any help, I've seen them repaired with the 3M material used for urethane bumpers, then painted....looked pretty nice, but they were no longer great at taking a hit, I suppose.

Check local body shop supply & auto parts store for black bodyside molding.
You should be able to find a similar profile.
OR pop 350 bucks for an NOS set of guards
