Hello! Our 1989 Westy recently took out a deer, but the deer took out our bumper... My wife and I are working with insurance and a local body shop for repairs, but they cannot source the bumper. Our Westy is originally from Canada, so it has the European style bumper. Does anyone have one for sale? I can provide more info/pics, if needed. A nice aftermarket replacement would also be and option if anyone has suggestions. Thanks!!

Thanks for the suggestion Bill, I messaged the dealer. These things are hard to find! We may end up going the fiberglass repair route to avoid the body modifications required to install an aftermarket bumper.

Quick update - we were unable to find a replacement bumper... but luckily the body shop was able to repair our fiberglass. We're glad to be back on the road, as well as, looking forward to upcoming events!
Thanks,
