That price is accurate, but don't forget about the shipping. What types of questions do you have about our products. Installation will require drilling mounting points, sanding off black finish, bondo skimming paint/ clear. However I have a lot of friends with my parts on their cars and it looks great. A lot of shops will turn my parts away because they are scared to work with Fiberglass or don't know how to properly quote custom body work. Let me know where you're located & I can work on finding you a good installer. Also terrasmak is right, we do offer incentive deals for forum members. So email or pm if interested. paulm@extremedimensions.com or 714-278-8000 ext. 17

LOL, now I'll actually answer his question. The reason they are so cheap is because they need 5HRS+ of body work to prep them for paint. They will have chips./holes in gel-coat. Sometimes the gel-coat is wavy/almost orange peeled and needs to be sanded down. Where it mounts to the body has to be custom drilled. Also if you park and hit a curb they are going to crack and not bend like a poly bumper would

I have ordered 2x fiberglass bumpers and both needed a lot of work. One even needed the headlight area cut because it wouldn't fit at all
