The factory airbags in my 2003 Grande were due for replacement due to age. The driver's side had a 1cm tear which underwent some DIY repair prior to a trip to Robe. It subsequently failed on full articulation and we limped home on the bumpstops.
I decided that the Airbag Man OA6011 kit was the way to go. So I asked nicely for a discount and got 10% ($895 rrp) from the Adelaide reseller, Air Springs SA. I dealt with Stuart.
First up are some comparative pics of the new and old airbags. Note that the Airbag Man airbags were not fully extended in the photos. I didn't want to extend them as it was very hard to pull out and I was afraid to not be able to get it back to the retracted position as that is the length required to install it.
It doesn't seem to be much longer than the factory airbags.
The top and bottom of the new airbags is some kind of plastic.
