Default Where To Buy This Bumper Other Than Ebay?

I was recently on ebay and came across this front bumper. I like the design of this bumper, but the one on ebay says its backordered. Plus they want 770shipped for it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

They made that replica...

A while ago they sold the actual bumper they used to make the replica mold out of, it had a crack on the corner when it was for sale...

good luck with replica's...

That's a pretty decent looking bumper. Beware replicas, though... $770 shipped ain't cheap. How much is the real thing?

I was at Shine Auto last nite. i got to see the last one of these that is going out to clients. Let me tell you im not here to shove false information down your throats but the kits that i saw there where amazing in quailty. i actualy bent the kits myself and was shocked that nothing happend. they actually feel like Urethane. I met the owner Ken discussing the kit that is going to be put on my Z and was very happy with his customer skills. I usually dont like to put kits on my car or hate body kits in general but when i saw the quality of these kits and the workers making them IN-HOUSE i was shocked to see the detail that each worker was putting into the kits. I am getting the VERTEX lip kit they have for my car because its not to flashy and has a very clean look, Plus the quaility was out of this world. Infact Ken was making the last pieces of my kit last night and gave me the option to wait around till 6pm or pick it up tomarrow. SHINE AUTO kits will be on the Nissansource Z from now on because of the service we recieved and the quality of the kits. We paid for our kit just like to add that in, and they are local here in Ontario CA im sure if you wanted to check the quality yourself you could check out the 350z we have or give Shine Auto a call to review the kits

here are pics of the one we purchased

and yes its a replica but my god it was excellent

they had 5 kits at intro price for $350 and sold out in few days. Now it is $550. You can bargain on the shipping charge down to $100. Expect for Vertex and Central 20 very soon. I can't wait for Central 20.

the original part had a small crack from pulling it off the mold, that doesn't mean the mold is cracked......all our parts are good, otherwise customer's would be complaining left and right........but they're not. We are not the TYPICAL chinese-made replica companies that you see around......we know what we're doing and we invest time in making sure parts come out right........

Buy an orginal Amuse kit........bring it down to our office. If it is better than ours......I will give you ours for free...........
