sedan G speed bumper for 89 bucks plus ship?

seems a little weird that it says 03-06 when the 05-06 has different dimensions then 03-04 if it fits one or the other and theres nothing wrong with it seems like a deal, im not in the market for a new bumper just yet but i know some of you guys are, what you guys think?

#1. it's fiberglass. I personally don't like using fiberglass as a front or rear bumper. I prefer urethane with a flexible paint

#2. it's a bad pic but it looks like an OEM upper half grafted to a fiberglass lower. But you can't even tell either way since the picture is so tiny and very little info is given int he auction.

#3. This one is opinion based, but i don't really like the style of the rookie front bumper. The center is too open and the side vents remind me of a civic with a kit on it with the large G35 headlights. Granted its one of the nicer body kits out there, but it still isn't my style.


#3 is my opinion so i don't expect that to carry much weight with anyone, but the major reason I wouldn't use it is #2. The picture in that ebay auction just looks a little shady since it's so small and far away. Very little detail to entice someone to spend $250 on it. I just more or less question the quality of that particular bumper in the auction given the sales tactic. Plus if it is a rookie bumper rip-off, why support it when rookie did all the R&D into developing a bumper than a lot of people like?

anyone who tells you their front bumper fits 03-06 sedans you should stay away from.

If they don't even know they're different....what makes you think their product even has an ounce of quality to it?

and It's $249 shipped.....$89 + $160 shipping.......thats a joke.....LOL

Looks like a Greddy lower with a oem-type upper and a lot of work still required...
