would it be in my best interest to buy a bumper from someone on driver? have them ship and then put it on that way?
or are there any local body shops that will make, for example a nismo front bumper? Money isnt a huge issue since someone hit my front end so he will be paying for it, but the cheaper the better

LMK if you guys have had any experience with shops and front bumpers

also, any good places to do body work for a reasonable price?

Thanks

 

I love our sponsors, and they usually spend a good amount of time on fitment so there should be less "modification" needed. However most body mods will have SOME level of tweaking needed. So yes, get a bumper from one of our sponsors...I can't decide who to plug cause there are a lot of good choices on the marketplace! Then have the bodyshop in your local area set it up for final fitment

i dont think any body shops will "make" you a bumper
and you should buy your own then bring it in to your body shop for paint and fitment.
keep in mind if you go w aftermarket parts they usually do not fit 100% like oem, but can be very close depending on how well they are made
Only way to make sure paint matches perfectly is to match it to the rest of the car while its in the paint shop.
I work at a body shop in Renton and wouldn't mind helping you out. Just PM me if you need help or have any more questions
