Has anyone purchased one of these yet or any body part from this company?

Asside from the fact that shipping costs more than the bumper, that's damn cheap. Doesn't say what it's made of. For that price, somebody with a bit of cash to burn oughta just give it a shot.

Been there, looked at that. Hmm, $500 vs. $140... tough call. Looks to be an EXACT replica from the pic (IF the pic is of the product they actually sell); i.e. has the emblem indentation and harder bead line at the lip. Might take more prep, but prob not $360 more. Anyway this thread was to inquire if anyone had heard of or tried it. There deffinitely needs to be more info. about it before judgement can be made (what's it made of, fitment, etc.?), but the price makes it very intriguing. They have the sides and rears as well, also very cheap.

Are you kidding? Urethane needs a lot more prep work then fiberglass.

I shot them an e-mail, so we'll see what they reply with. They are a web based company in CA. If someone would like to give them a call, their number is: 626-656-2900

I asked about composition, maker, fitment and if the pics are of the actual products in my e-mail.

with cheep fiberglass parts... they usually have alot of waves in them... in order to get out... you will end up doing something like we are doing in my thread...

you will end up paying more for body work to make it look good then its really worth...
