What ever happened to?

In my buick free spirit manual it mentions diversified plastic in the detroit area. They made fiberglass front bumper extensions for 78-80 regals and centuries. Any one know what happened to them or if they are still available?

I haven't heard that name since the 80's. They used to make a lot of race car stuff for the Fiero and 3rd Gen F-Body. I'd almost bet they went out of business if they didn't show up in a Google search. I don't know if that stuff would fly today. That was pretty much 70's vintage thinking there. You'd make the RiceBoys cry with laughter if you did that today.

I found my free spirit manual and it gives Diversified Glass in pontiac, Mi. I know they did some work on the I-roc firebirds of like 94-95.
