Need new mutton chops

Scraped up mine a little bit pulling too far forward and hitting the curb Thank God this part is unpainted plastic!

Anybody know the part number? I've searched but I want to confirm on here. I was thinking about just buying the CS fascia but it looks like its double the cost of the muttons.

If anyone has takeoff muttons I'd love to buy them. Especially if they are local, but I don't mind if they have to be shipped...

I scraped the pass-side one a while back on a curb too ... just scuffed the surface a bit, so just left it as-is and don't think I've done it again since. I'm probably the only one who will notice it anyway !!

Is your damage more than a surface scuff ??

I won't know until I get off work because I had to rush in for a meeting right after it happened. But it looked like deep scratches. I think once I clean it up it still might be noticeable. Regardless of that it will bug the crap out of me, and if the price is right I don't mind to pay for a new one...

If you can wait about a month, I'll give you mine. I'm about to buy the GT/CS front fascia, it appears.

Thanks for the offer Marz! I'd really appreciate that! I've PM'd Shaun to see if Rehagen racing has any and I've also talked to SMS since they are local to me.

Haven't heard from Shaun yet, and SMS said $120 for a new bumper (which is a GREAT deal). But I think I can wait a month

I wonder how much it would cost me to ship to CA....

Normally I am too. I don't know what I was thinking. Just wasn't paying attention I guess....*sigh

The worst part about it is I can only be mad at myself LOL

Well, I'm in Knoxville, TN if you want to check and get a rough estimate. I'm not sure what this thing weighs.

Looks like it would be about $20-40 depending on how much it weighs and how fast I want it shipped. I'd throw in a 'lil something for your trouble as well Marz.

I looked again after work and thankfully the damage is not as bad I thought. Its in an inconspicuous area, and its stratches within the shape of a right triangle shape about 1" in base and height.

If I could sand it smooth and hit it with whatever paint color it is, it'd be fine...

You know, there is so much conversation around curbs, parking space bumpers, etc. that I am surprised car mfgrs haven't come up with a 360° solution instead of just rear sensors/cameras. Unless you count those fancy curb feelers I used to see on Lincoln Continentals in the late '80s...

You mean the mutton chops won't just grow back?
