These fillers are very well done and fit like a glove with absolutely no alterations required. The quality is second to none on these units and is identical in fit, form, and function to the originals. Coming from an engineering background, I can tell these fillers have been reversed engineered to the greatest detail; I can only assume using laser technology. Every crook and cranny of these fillers has been meticulously recreated and is identical to the originals. The material composition that these fillers are made from is far superior to GM's originals and will hold up well in the heat of the sun. They even used the same size steel behind the fillers as the OEM's, but instead of being bare they are black EDP coated to resist corrosion and are pop riveted in place, again just like the originals. All my restoration work has been completed by Mike Azotini of Azotini Performance in Welland Ontario. Mike is very knowledgeable, has been in the muscle car resto business for years and is well versed with aftermarket parts. He's very fussy about quality and the presentation of the finished product. Here's what he had to say… “The fillers are a direct fasten utilizing all the original contact locations after the old ones are removed. I simply had to wash the release agent off the surface of the fillers which is used during the injection manufacturing process, then scuff, adhesion promote, and shoot .It’s that simple. Thank you for providing us with top quality reproduction parts! I am totally impressed with the fit and finish of your product. Keep up the good work Brian!” I know I am only one customer and that none of you know Mike and I from a hole in the ground (and from Canada no less), but I can truthfully say all things considered, for the money, you will never regret using these bumper fillers on your prized Buick Grand National.

While at BPG in Ohio this weekend I picked up a complete set of GBodyParts OEM style fillers. The look is spot on...the flexibility is great yet they are sturdy...the metal brackets are there with holes so you don't have to drill your own like the others!!! Brian hooked me up with an excellent price and I didn't have to pay shipping!!! Thank you Brian...and gang!!!

I've owned my street GN since new and it still wears the near perfect factory paint. I am very picky about this car and even though it has led a sheltered life, the factory fillers had still deteriorated to the point I had no choice but the install fiberglass fillers. Nothing wrong with them but they took a lot of work to fit and still would never be perfect. About time I got the fiberglass fillers fitted on the car I came across these. There is NO COMPARISON between these and the fiberglass or ABS fillers as far as fit and quality are concerned. These fit like a glove and are DEAD ON reproductions of the originals. As bolt on as they can be - just paint them and bolt them on. If you want to keep it original then these are well worth the extra $$$ - YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!!

I had my paint shop delay finishing and delivering my car to wait for these to become available. The paint shop received these fillers, and they were very happy with the fit and no need to do any prep work to them. They were primed, painted, and installed in about one day. When I took delivery of the car, I noticed that they looked perfect - they appear just like brand-new stock fillers. Unlike the fiberglass and ABS fillers, these are not stiff - they have the same flexibility as the stock fillers. Overall, if you need to replace fillers on your car and want the best appearing and fitting that are available, get these!
