Shortage of 2Gb rear bumpers

This site may earn a commission from merchant affiliate links, including eBay, Amazon, and others.

I would imagine that it is a supply and demand problem. There are way more people that want to buy the 2gb front bumper for replacing cracked ones/conversions than there are people wanting the 2gb rears. I believe there are a lot more companies producing OEM replicas of the fronts.
 
This is a good topic.

If ebay offered oem style rear bumpers like they do with the front bumpers, I'm sure there would be a good market for it. Maybe someone has to speak to them to try to get it going.

The ebay front bumpers are awesome! Fitment is great, durable and cheap. It's the same one body shops get and charge you 3x the price for.
 
Check your local junkyard. There is a 2Gb talon and a few 2Gb eclipse rear bumpers at my local junkyard.
 
mm i like how you painted in the grey on your 2ga, King. I should look into doing that. Did you get it done somewhere or did you do it yourself?
 
I was just wondering why there is like 100 2Gb front bumpers on ebay and other sites but never any rear ones?
There is a very good reason behind this. Demand. More than 99% of our driving is in a forward motion, rather than in reverse. Our front bumpers have a much higher probability of gaining damage and needing replacement. Manufacturers acknowledge this and choose to produce the one that more people will need. Simple math, really.
 
Okay, "eBay" doesn't sell anything. They're just the site the sellers list on.
When there's more of one thing for sale than another, it's usually an indication the hard-to-find ones didn't sell very well. Basic economics.
