    Where to get an SS bumper for a good price?

    Most I've seen cost over $300 and shipping is over $150. I found one on ebay for $220 plus $80 shipped(via Greyhound). Anybody know of anything better? I was thinking of powdercoating my stock bumper, bumper cap, and valance, but was told powdercoating fades after a while, is that true?
