My rear bumper cover is in bad shape and I would like to find a used one if possible. Prevost want $1,954.00 for a piece of plastic so that is why I am looking for a used one. Any ideas where a H3 VIP wrecked in the front may be located? The seated H3 has a different bumper so it needs to be a VIP model. I could probably repair it but that would take a lot of work and $$$ as well. We are located in the Foothills of NC.   Thanks

Heard rumor a while back Easter's was going out of business. Might actually be able to buy one from them now, if they have it!

Or maybe Bob Glines knows of someplace that may have some Prevost's being parted out.

Are you a member of the Prevost Community board? Surely someone over there would be able to direct you the right direction too.

$1954.00 they came down in price I removed mine and a fiberglass boat repair here used a chopper gun and fiber glassed it for 200 bucks you can use the 3 piece of H-40 or H- 45 I started to do it they were easier to find I doubt you will find the one piece VIP bumper in good shape used

Thanks for the replies. I will check with Easters but it sounds like a repair is in my future.

Tom, check with Allen at the boat shop in Mooresvile, NC about repairing yours.

Tom, I was at B&B Coach in Las Vegas a few weeks ago and Gary has been rebuilding some wrecked Prevosts.  There is a H3 there with the front end torn up, don't know what he has for parts laying around but you might check.  HTH

PS  for anyone looking he also has a low mile Series 60 and B500 there for a good price.
