The rear bumpers on my 91 Westy burned in the PO's engine box fire and
the cost of new plastic bumpers is out-of-sight$$$, so I found a metal
bumper from a junker.  I sanded it, painted with anti-rust black paint,  found
the side caps from another junker.  To go backwards from plastic to metal
you will also need are the bumper brackets that screw into the frame.  Mine
looks OK .  Good luck.  Malcolm S
