Aside from the regular online dealer parts places, I have two suggestions:
eBay - Seen em on there occasionally.
www.car-part.com - might luck out and find one that's already painted your color
Sorry about the hit. Good luck in the search!

i think that rear 1/34 needs to be welded back into place. I know its no 240sx but thats how my 240 was. that within itself is liek 1500 right there everything else you could probably find in a junkyard, here, or ebay

Thanks guys I'll check out those links. Finding a rear bumper cover for our cars is the ishts. Anyways I'm trying to have one of the fastest repairs ever. Me and a buddy pulled the dent out and bondo'd the quarter panel so now at least the jerks at the shop can't keep my car for 3, 4 weeks talking about they're welding. Now I just need a bumper and the outer rear tail light with some sanding on that bondo and the car will be ready for paint. Well that's the major stuff. I still need a side marker light, but that's pie.
