Can a bodyshop somehow mold the tow hook cover on my original Nismo bumper to make it flush on a polyurethane? Or is that only possible on a poly?

seriously at that price it has better be OEM fitment, because it's unpainted and so expensive.......any additional bodywork just to make it work is RIDICULOUS. If there was gonna be issues, might as well buy a $200 bumper and spend th difference in bodywork makign it fit -__________________-
Couldn't even just get a partial refund. Yea for reals, I paid high price like that I should expect much better quality, else I could've just pick up a 200 one off ebay.

Ey you shyners I have an offset dilemma .... I'm thinking of getting some TE-37s but I want max lip off them

Sofar seems like +12 all around is good... But can I go more aggressive than that without having to run hardcore camber

thats absolutely ridiculous that he wont give u a refund...his **** dont fit! peter has had to bend over backwards to give customers refunds if they were unhappy with their parts for any reason. i say u demand for a refund or everyone boycotts his sh!tty parts
