Talking Got a used 06 bumper for 150 shipped!

What do you guys think? I think it was a pretty good deal from ebay. It is a 06 bumper with a few scratches and all of the mounts are in good shape according to the seller. I was quoted 195.00 at nissan dealership for paint and puting it on my G.

Every car has 2 bumpers. Whichever one you're talking about I guess was a good deal.

It's a good deal especially when bumpers go for around $300 +/-. You're most likely better off taking the bumper to get painted at a local body shop for anywhere between $100-150. btw...what's wrong with your current bumper or are you upgrading to an 06'?

Sounds a lil bit cheap, i think 300 is retail on a bumper cover.

Sorry about not replying sooner...I got the front 06 coupe bumper. I really did not intend to change out my bumper but I got bored at work and was just on ebay and found it. The guy who was selling it thought is was a 03 to 05 bumper and so was not selling it for much. My original front bumper just has its usual rock chips from occassional highway driving. I was thinking of putting on a lip but they still cost $200 or so without paint. I might as well just get an entire front end.
As for the dealership thing, I called around here in Bowling Green and could not find a decent body shop that could match the paint properly. Also some of them quoted me prices of 300 to 400 just to prep and paint. They said the red paint cost more. I think they just didn't want to fool with me.
Here is the item number on ebay if anyone wants to take look.
ebay item #220004540513

Did you ask him if the bumber in the pic is the exact bumber for sale? He said the bumper for sale in the auction was grey. Maybe he just used a white 2006 front bumper cover pic for the listing. Either way, thats a pretty good deal.
