Bought a V2 from Shine Auto, great guys... but the bumper needed a lot of work, I guess when molding the bumper, the FRP ( I think thats what its made of) started to build up under the headlights unevenly. I'm thinking the mold they use is getting a bit older? None the less, I am happy I went with Shine.

I had a Shine Auto V2 bumper. Only had to do the normal prep work for painting, no modification needed to fit great. Check my profile for pics.

A while back when I was deciding who to buy from, Strafe vs Shine, I remember reading a post from a guy saying... He has gone through two V2 bumpers, one from Strafe and one from Shine. Also that it was worth spending a little more money on the Shine kit since the fitment was all around near perfect and there was minimal prepwork.

I'll try and find it the post from the dude.
I'm overall happy with my Strafe kit. But feel free to choose what you like

I have a VIS from strafe. Fitmet is good and I am happy with it. Bodyshop said their was a little wave and had to dremel the holes a little but the fitment is good and with just a little prepwork it fits really well.

Here she is.
