Just got my "Brabus" bumper from Jason!

[OCKlasse]

First off, let me tell you that Jason (714guy) is extremely nice and easy going. I bought the bumper and went home and put it together with my preupdate bumper shell I bought off ebay (check the classifieds and 714s post to see exactly where I bought it), and all I can say is WOW! I am very impressed with the fit and finish of the bumper. For anyone who is skeptical, let the pics (all well crappy,) speak for themselves. I highly recommend you guys jump on this awesome deal before they are all gone, and I mean come on, its going to charity! I took a few crappy pics of the bumper sitting in my room :o ...Thanks again Jason!!!!

haha, hell yeah I am going to. Any ideas on where/how to mount it?

[matt09]

My only worry is painting it.... I dont want to pay $500 more, if I find a professional that can paint it.

[matt09]

it came as part of the preupdate bumper core I had to buy...

[714guy]

Brandon, thanks for the purchase and the kind words. I am glad you're happy with the fitment. They really are just like the real one as you saw.

Only two left guys. I'd recommend you pick up one of those preupdated bumpers off ebay too, regardless if you have the preupdated bumper already; so you can have a stock one just in case. The grill is part of the preupdated bumper support. Come get them before they're gone.

[SLAMMED_C]

ya got the ebay link for the pre-updated bumpers?

[Rey99C280]

Brandon,
Can't wait to see it on your car! What side skirts and rear bumpers are using with it?

714guy, great job on those bumpers. How hard is it for you to modify one bumper to have a more rounder opening for those foglights? Just a thought.... Do you have any other bumpers aside for these Brabus ones?

Gett this bumper if they'll ship it. The fit is really good and it has everything ready to put on the car.

Thank you very much Jason, thats is a freakin awesome price!!

[SLAMMED_C]

well I was going to buy the bumper from the ebay link.. but I got a quote for shipping!!.. $320!! and then $92 or whatever it was for the bumper.
I can get it cheaper from the dealer!! so Im going to order one soon from them instead.

I sure know how that feels, right now I was supposed to spend money on upgrades but instead buying two new side windows, new headlights and car is at the shop getting the driver door repainted. :eek: lets just say my ex isnt happy with me being alive.
