Default Anyone purchase from Unique Customs?

Looking to get a rear bumper and I was checking on ebay and a seller seems to be shipping out already painted bumpers. Now I talked with my body shop and they are charging me almost $100 more to have the bumper installed and painted where as this I can install an already painted bumper myself..... does anyone know if these guys are credible or not? thanks

I was going to contact perfomance nissan but my local dealership is charging me $320 + tax....and the body shop is charing about $300 to paint and install.... now they do a pretty good job Im just a little tight on money right now and my back bumper wripped off the car (long story) so its an unexpected $500-600 I have to spend now. But im still checking around to see prices.

Front Bumpers are all of 300.00 new so rears are prob close. A 100,00 for paint and install is really cheap

Correction: Front is 220.00 rear is 245.00

where are you getting 245 from? I called my nissan dealership and they quoted me like 319 or so. As well, the body shop is charging me roughly 300 for the install and paint...I was just thinking if I got this one painted already painted black I could install it myself and save 100 dollars.

Read the fine print. There's a $150 handling fee for oversized items. A bumper is oversized.

The eBay guys are overpriced. For a front bumper, my dealer quoted $284. Body shop wants $200 to prep and paint. I'll install myself. That's a total of $484. If I bought from these eBay guys, It'd be $600 including shipping and I'd still have to install it myself.
