Arrow Advise Needed On These Bumpers.

ok im not one for buying bits like this off ebay but this seems a very good deal:

http://stores.ebay.co.uk/VENO-DESIGN...QQftidZ2QQtZkm

dont know what quality this is or anything but it is v cheap considering im thinking of buying the same looking bumper for £300 except the £300 quid one is re-enforced plastic etc n from a recognised website.

what does anyone think - crap and spend the extra, or worth a buy?

p.s. you gotta click on the pics to see the actul bumpers he's selling.

cheers

I'm skeptical about body stuff on ebay, too. I guess I would just spend the extra.

Definitely spend the extra $$$ and go for an ABS-plastic bumper...Trust me, with these bumpers, you'll probably end up spending the extra money in trying to get them to fit properly (i.e. modification to the mounting systems etc.) I've had some friends buy some of these very cheap kits from e-bay and the fitment was so poor that they had to cut/modify the fiberglass so that they would fit properly onto the car. You may want to look at getting a Rieger kit if you are looking for the e46 style front; they are abs plastic :
