I can't give a 100% satisfaction yet, but once I fully unwrap and install the bumper I'll letcha guys know... So far though my interactions/transactions thus far have been legit and straight forward. I'll letcha guys know what my final opinion/experience is. So far so good though

That's how my transaction went, and I sent my gas cover to color match. Color wise, it's pretty on point, but give the bumper a slight flex, and/or check the edges to see if the paint are really painted on

Bought a rear bumper from him. Was very prompt and responsive over the 2 months it took to get here. Got the bumper and at first sight the paint was okay. Whoever painted it did not remove the adhesive from the 370Z emblem and Nissan emblem. They just painted over it. The rear diffuser area was plastidipped, when he said it was "matte black" thats what he meant. The plastidip is already peeling on arrival and i havent even installed this thing, the minor damage on my current bumper isnt bad enough to put this thing on.

Are you guys serious? He put mine in the mail in less than 24 hours. He texted me pictures of the item too. Maybe I got lucky?

Honestly, just waiting if he even is going to reply or fix all his problems.

I was juuuuuuuuust about to pull the trigger on the black cherry rear bumper he is selling... After reading this thread I am holding off, pending his response to the complaints from everyone else and my request for more pictures and a much more detailed description of the condition of the bumper.

Seems like it's hit or miss.. Some people got hosed, some people seem to have gotten what they wanted.

Only picture I got it shows the bondo carbon fiber on the bottom became useless

TonyZ34 · 06-05-2014, 01:35 PM

Like I said he lies. Shipping didn't cost $150. " Just needs a repaint"? BS etc.

zilverbullet · 06-05-2014, 02:07 PM

Are these parts being sold through the forum or what other websites is he selling these parts from so we know to stay away?

TonyZ34 · 06-05-2014, 03:00 PM

At first I tried to but Paypal didn't let me so I sent the money where they charged me the fee

coop370z · 06-05-2014, 03:03 PM

Not knocking the guy at all. He was very responsive and a good seller. The plastidip diffuser and painted over adhesive is rather disappointing though. Now I'll be forced to either add a 370z badge or have a shop remove the paint and adhesive and re paint.

Hope everything goes well for you, more than likely not... but one thing I learn from this is dont buy body parts from this guy especially if he say he is gonna paint for you... good luck with future buyers

No reply, no deal, nothing.

Repaint now that it has this shitty fuckíng paint job is estimated at the price of a whole new bumper.
