(unless your talking about a bumper that came painted)
I got my order and the guy asked me before he opened the box "Is this a good reputable seller?" I said oh yea one of the best...

I ate my own words when the bumper was full of bubbles and the side skirts were cracked. I was really disappointed and embarrassed, I felt like I had bought some eBay crap. Whatever... the body shop is really good with fiberglass I heard so I'm sure he'll make it look new but I was disappointed nevertheless.... I dont know if thats considered good already or what not, but I truly expected more.

My experience was pretty similar w/ my unpainted CS rear.. And my side skirts had bubbles (which i'm still trying to get rectified, but can't get a hold of Eric after I told him about it).. The front had cracks around the light fixtures.. And those 2 parts came painted..

A question for those that have received painted parts.. Did he use red basecoat for all of your bumpers and skirts as well? Because if my TB parts get scratched, red shows below.. Is that right? Shouldn't the basecoat be black or grey?

I talked to Eric today. My Nismo didn't ship out yesterday. He said it will be shipping out today. I am really starting to need this bumper.

I talked to him today and he said it did get shipped out yesterday, but we'll see. My car is officially as far as it can go without this front bumper. So now its just sitting there waiting for this bumper. Hopefully it did ship and it will be here in a few days.

It seems like you and I are in the same boat. Hopefully we both get our bumpers sometime this week. Hopefully they dont have the same issues they apparently had.

definitely the best approach since you got new fenders and what not. You take any new pics? Did they paint the fenders yet? or the Hood? Rims mounted?

Id love to take new pics, but my beater got broken into and they stole my radar detector and my camera, then my beater broke down yesterday....lol Luckily it turned out to be nothing big. But havin my ish stolen totally sucked. They wanna paint everything all at once, so its all even and the same shade and what not. Rims and eyelids will be here friday, hopefully the bumper too since its already shipped supposedly. How long did it take your stuff to get here once it was shipped?

So I finally took my car to get the kit installed and I dont understand how everyone says this is a "perfect" fit. There are so many imperfections on my front bumper and rear. The side markers do not fit, the front does not align properly near the headlights, the rear exhaust is rubbing against the rear bumper.....and on and on....argh. I felt like the body shop was saying all this to make extra money but when he took pics and emailed them to me I did not know what to say. I'm afraid what the price is going to be now. This is turning more and more into a money pit. After waiting for a long time and the poor customer service I have to say I am really turned of by this whole experience. Anyways Ill post pics when its done.

WOW. this is horrible. what happened the "quality" hes suppose to be known for?

I have yet to have the parts (inven+impul+cs) installed by eric. Im still waiting to hear from him when the painting is done and i can drive up.

Hearing all these horror stories... i hope he has the decency to make sure he doesnt install sub par pieces on my car at his own shop.

i need to get ahold of him.....

Same here. I went to check out my car on tuesday. It was just sitting there, waiting. As long as the quality is good, I will be happy. However, I would be upset if fitment sucked.
