I saw your HUGE cracks. None of them were more than stress cracks from a USED AS_IS bumper.

Point is, they were cracked, yet he FAILED to mentioned them. YOU SAW IT, but clearly Dustin didn't? Hmm

Plus the guys shop is asking for $200 to repair those "stress cracks"...

Should the shop just bondo it for free and hope for the best? Or repair it so there won't be any problems with the paint in the future.

You said you saw the stress cracks, but the shop sanded the paint down and noticed even a bigger crack.

When selling a used item, you should mention all of the problems to prevent the buyer from getting any surprises.

alright. Everyone stop having a damn titty attack. Let Dustin (NOT STRAFE) take care of this issue and stop talking about it in a public forum because this issue is not as serious as everyone is blowing it up to be. CarribbeanBlue on here had her fiberglass sideskirts cracked and needed extensive fiberglass repair on it and she didn't even pay that much. I suggest that the OP find a new shop, get the damage requoted and go from there. As for Dustin I believe he's cleared from all fault as all sellers would be on selling a AS IS item. We all make mistakes. Handle this in a grown way.

IMO your still coming out on top and you will have an awesome looking bumper when its done.
Im not coming out on top when im spending at least 1500 dollars when i was expecting to only be paying 1200 max. Also everything was sold for 700 not 600 like I said I made a mistake

$700 for a cracked bumper and new sideskirts? + shipping?

Learn from this. Buy new or buy a poly bumper. FiberGlass suks...

Used items are sold (as-is). But how would you feel if you bought used shocks and find out that they're blown?

You said you paid $700 but yet in your previous post, you wrote you paid $600 for both?
