So, I have ordered the Shine Spec-A kit without the rear bumper add on. My rear bumper is toast and I want to get another and add a different lip on it.

Where is the best place to buy OEM body parts. So far I have contacted my local Nissian dealer and was promptly told tail lights alone where 720.00...

I politely said F U and now I am here.

i have checked slidegood.com and they don't have any rear bumpers right now for a 2004. I have also checked out nissianpartszone.com and looks to be ok prices. I've also checked ebay, but most of the ones on there are cracked or damaged. I need a good condition one, primered or painted AX6 red.

One other thing i had a question on was the brand name "Replace". Looks exactly like OEM but way cheaper. anyone tried that route?

Any thoughts on where to go?

so i have someone wanting to sell me a nice rear on ebay. 300 shipped. is it worth it to spend that cash plus whatever it takes to get it repainted AX6 (red)? Or should i pay 500-600 for a new one painted?

I'm thinking it would be cheaper just to buy a new one and get it painted. I don't know how much more prep work is in removing the old paint to get it ready for primer though.

Thoughts?

saywat?

its usually cheaper for the shop to paint a fresh new unpainted bumper. less work. some shops will actually charge a bit extra labor for having to sand old paint off. id go new unless the used bumper was the same color

that's what i'm thinking... c-speed rear it is... and the plot thickens....
