Where does the body shop find the replacement bumper?

Since these are discontinued for 03~04 models?

 

I am sure you can get them at the dealer.

 

nope.... Good Luck my friend... The insurance may try to find one in a part recycler.... I know for a fact. Thats why i went with the Karookie Bumper

 

They should reimburse you for the stock one but you can put anything else you want on it. You just pay the difference.

 

this is true.

 

SOL, or your insurance company can call us at 800-919-8130 and pay the $$$ for us to import it from JAPAN and wait the 8-12 weeks with your car down before it arrives so they can start work

 

that sucks. so if i really wanted it.. they'll just say.. too bad eh.?

 

Probably unless you give them the heads up about us and that we can get it, it just takes us 6-12 weeks to get it in stock. We have already done this 3 times for insurance jobs.

 

So Japan has a big supply?????

 

What else can you guys get from Japan, you should let us know.

 

so overnight parts from japan is only in fast and the furious huh?

it really takes 8-12 weeks.

 

Aee you holding out on us????????

 

I know there isnt a big supply, but it sounds like they have contacts!

 

Yes we have the right connections for all things JDM from Nissan, but they do take sometime since we have to fill the containers first so a wait time of 4-12 weeks is to be expected. Overnight parts from Japan is still 4-12 weeks. If the part is backorder it's still 4-12 weeks. This is what we tell customers just so that they know there will be a wait time.

Only problem for the aero bumper is that everyone wants one, but they want it for free or close to nothing which isn't going to happen in the real world. You have to factor in that we are buying the bumper from Japan exchange rates suck right now. So the bumper is kind of pricey, but we can get it.

 

Great way to explain it Rick!
